![Canal Cottage, Eyton. The rather fine Canal Cottage, which would have been built around 1795 - 1800, at about the time the Shrewsbury and Newport Canal was being constructed through this area of Eyton Moor.

![Eyton upon the Weald Moors: the cemetery. The [[1627283]] stands in such a small churchyard that it is not surprising, even for a village of this size, that other grounds were required. The cemetery stands just across the road from the church and only the back row is currently used. I expect it will be a good many years before this site reaches capacity.The cemetery backs unfenced onto a large field. by Chris Downer – 13 December 2009](https://s1.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/62/76/1627653_0038b877_120x120.jpg)
