Dry Arch Bridge in Goodrich, Herefordshire, England, built in 1828, is one of the earliest examples of a bridge built specifically to carry a minor road across a more major one without the need for a road junction. It was constructed to carry the existing old road between Goodrich and Welsh Bicknor over a cutting for a new-built road connecting Kerne Bridge with Goodrich. It was built with a single span, using local sandstone, at least some of which came from the cutting beneath the bridge. It was also constructed to allow pedestrians to cross from one road to the other three-dimensionally without a lengthy diversion.
