The Bradford City Hall-Byers Masonic Lodge is a historic building in Bradford, Arkansas.[1] Constructed jointly by Beyers Masonic Lodge and the Bradford city government, the building served as both Bradford's city hall, and as a meeting hall for the lodge. It was shared until the lodge shut down.[2] The building is now used as a community meeting space, city offices having been moved to a new facility in 1995. It is a two-story structure finished in fieldstone on the first level and stucco on the second. Its gable roof has exposed rafter ends, giving the building a bit of Craftsman styling.[3]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
