Eaton-under-Heywood is a small rural parish in Shropshire, England, tucked beneath the Wenlock Edge escarpment and on the edge of the Long Mynd, within the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The landscape of limestone ridges, rolling pasture and heather moorland is popular with walkers and wildlife enthusiasts, and the settlement is made up of scattered farms, cottages and a modest historic parish church.

Economically the parish is largely agricultural, with some income from rural tourism and holiday accommodation, while social life reflects a small, tight‑knit community that looks to nearby market towns such as Church Stretton for services. The area has deep roots in the past, with medieval connections and prehistoric features on the surrounding hills, giving it a tranquil countryside character prized by residents and visitors alike.
