Hollow Brook Road Bridge
The Hollow Brook Road Bridge is a historic truss bridge that carries Hollow Brook Road over a tributary of the Lamington River in Tewksbury Township of Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States. Built around 1880, the steel bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 2002, for its significance in engineering and transportation. It was listed as part of the Historic Bridges of Tewksbury Township, Hunterdon County, New Jersey Multiple Property Submission (MPS).

The bridge is a single-span, pony truss bridge that carries a narrow road over the Hollow Brook, a tributary of the Lamington River. It was built using a variation of a Bollman truss or Fink truss. According to the nomination form, this is the only example in the county of this type.
