Cromwell Bridge Road, formerly Maryland Route 567, is a two-lane roadway in the Towson, Maryland area of the United States. The road begins at Providence Road in Towson, and continues past the Baltimore Beltway for several miles to its end, where it splits, a left turn going onto Glen Arm Road and a right turn onto Cub Hill Road.
Cromwell Bridge Road, which is exit 29 off the Baltimore Beltway in a set of ramps shared with Loch Raven Boulevard, is mostly undeveloped. A short section of the route between Providence Road and about a block past the beltway is filled with commercial development including office buildings, hotels, a park-and-ride lot that serves as the main northern terminus for Maryland Transit Administration bus route 3 and 104 and its two major landmarks: Loch Raven High School and Rock City Church.
The remainder of the road, which has few intersections, is designated as Maryland's "Horses and Hounds" scenic byway, mostly lined with trees, except for a portion where the Loch Raven Reservoir is visible.

Where light pushes through;
A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air.
A dip to the water.”

“Youth is rather to be pitied than envied by people in years since it is doomed to toil through the rugged road of life which the others have passed through, in search of happiness that is not to be met with in it and that, at the highest, can be compounded for only by the blessing of a contented mind.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
