Preens Eddy

A detached Grade II Listed former toll house[1][2] still sits on the bank of the River Severn, on the High Street, Coalport, by Preens Eddy Bridge.

[4] The station at Preens Eddy still exists, now converted to a private residence with a small portion of the edge of the westbound platform still visible.

Today, the only remaining public house at Preens Eddy is the Woodbridge Inn,[7] named after the original "Wood Bridge" that crossed the Severn here.

At postcode location TF8 7JF, its tranquil setting and good car parking attract many who wish to explore Preens Eddy itself or take an easy walk around The Werps, The Tuckies, Jackfield, GWR Severn Valley Way, The Calcutts, The Hay Inclined Plane and Coalport Basin, China works and Tile Museum and Tar Tunnel with 5 or 6 pubs en route.

The only sizeable house of historical note appears to be The Amies,[8] a rectangular, black-and-white building of Tudor styling, which was demolished in the 1890s.
