Rawcliffe Bridge is a small hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) south west of Goole and lies just south of the M62 motorway.

It forms part of the civil parish of Rawcliffe which lies just to the north west. The hamlet was once served by a station on the Selby to Goole branch line, but this closed along with the line in June 1964.

The Aire and Calder Navigation runs just south of Rawcliffe Bridge. Sugar Mill Pond lies just to the west and is designated as a Local Nature Reserve and was part funded by lottery money.
