The Lloydsville Arch Bridge, a stone closed-spandrel arch built in 1826, crosses a branch of Wheeling Creek along the National Road in Belmont County, Ohio.

The stone closed-spandrel arch bridge was constructed in 1826 and remained part of the main road until 1940, when it was bypassed by a modern two-lane alignment. 1 The original National Road alignment is now part of County Highway 40B. The bridge was rehabilitated in 2015.
