The Harp Creek Bridge is a historic bridge in rural northern Newton County, Arkansas, carrying Arkansas Highway 7 across Harp Creek in the hamlet of Harrison. It is an open spandred arch bridge, built out of steel and concrete in 1928 by the Luten Bridge Company. The arches span 69 feet (21 m), and are mounted on piers set 24 feet (7.3 m) from the abutments. The total structure length is 117 feet (36 m), and the deck is 23 feet (7.0 m) wide. Concrete balustrades line the sides of the bridge.

The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
