The North Sylamore Creek Bridge is a historic bridge in the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest in northern Stone County, Arkansas. It is a Baltimore deck truss bridge, carrying Forest Service Road 1102 over North Sylamore Creek near the Gunner Pool Recreation Area. The bridge has two spans, each 110 feet (34 m) long, with a total structure length of 357 feet (109 m). It rests on concrete piers and abutments. The bridge was built in 1931, and is the only known example of this type of truss (a variant of the more-common Pratt truss) in the state.

The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
