Longdon-Upon-Tern (also known as Longdon-on-Tern or colloquially Longdon) is a village in east central Shropshire, England. It is in the unitary district of Telford and Wrekin, and is approximately east of Shrewsbury and north-west of Telford. Longdon-Upon-Tern is situated on the River Tern, a tributary of the River Severn.
Settled since at least the Normans, the village is notable as the site of the first large-scale cast iron navigable aqueduct, designed and built by Thomas Telford for the canal. The aqueduct is Grade I listed and a preserved as a scheduled ancient monument.

A settlement at Longdon-Upon-Tern dates to at least the Normans, as it is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as ''Languedune'', held by St. Alkmund's Church. It continued with the church until the 12th century when it passed to Lilleshall Abbey until its dissolution in the 16th century.〔("Longdon-Upon-Tern" )〕 Its Domesday assets were: 2 hides, 5 ploughs, and a mill worth 5s.〔(Domesday Book: Languedune ), National Archives, UK〕
