About this property

The Goff Farm Stone Bridge is a historic bridge in eastern Fayetteville, Arkansas. It carries Goff Farm Road (County Road 170) across an unnamed creek just north of Stonebridge Meadows Golf Club. The bridge is a single-span stone arch with a span of 20 feet (6.1 m) and a total bridge length of 150 feet (46 m). The bridge's builder is unknown, and its design suggests it was built circa 1860, when the road it carries was a major east–west thoroughfare connecting Fayetteville and Huntsville. It is believed to be the oldest masonry bridge in the state, and is one of the state's small number of surviving 19th-century stone bridges. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
