Fisher's Lane Bridge is a historic stone arch bridge that carries Fisher's Lane west of Ramona Avenue across Tacony Creek in Tacony Creek Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The closed-spandrel stone arch bridge has a single span of 54 feet (16 m) and is 27.7 feet (8.4 m) wide. It is currently open to traffic.

Though claimed by some to have been re-built in 1796, a still-legible cornerstone in the bridge masonry shows the year 1759.
