Preens Eddy
The history of Preens Eddy, located opposite Coalport and downstream of Jackfield, in Shropshire, England, lies at the heart of the industrial revolution.
== Location and remains of the settlement today ==
Preens Eddy is a settlement which lies on the south bank of the River Severn between ''The Woodbridge Inn'', just next to Coalport Bridge, and the settlement of The Tuckies on the eastern edge of Jackfield where the Memorial Footbridge crosses the Severn. During the mid 20th Century, a further settlement, The Werps, separated Preens Eddy from The Tuckies and The Werps will be considered as the western boundary Preens Eddy, the River Severn its northern boundary, the Woodbridge Inn its eastern boundary and the track of the old Great Western Railway line, its southern boundary. This means that the most notable landmark of Preens Eddy is the bridge over the Severn linking Broseley with Coalport, originally made of wood and hence called the "Wood Bridge", in contrast to its counterpart made of iron further upstream, famously known as the "Iron Bridge". The origin of name Preens Eddy (or Preen's Eddy) is unclear at the time of writing and contributions are sought to determine whether the Eddy was a swirling current formed by an obstruction in the river or whether Preen was a person, a place or a landmark/feature, or a name possibly linked to the Preenshead woodland location nearby.
