The community lies near the banks of the Coosa River and partially within the city limits of Vincent. Arkwright was founded in 1907 and was named for Preston Stanley Arkwright, who served as founder and president of Georgia Railway and Power Company and as an official with the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Railway.[2] At one point, the community was home to a railroad station, post office, bank, cotton gin, gristmill, general store, furniture store, and school. The post office was in operation from 1909 to 1926.[3] In 1924, the railroad company raised the railroad bed, eliminating the need for a depot. The population soon began to decline and the post office was closed shortly afterwards.[4] The Arkwright Baptist Church and Arkwright Heritage Area, which includes multiple structures and cemeteries, were added to the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 2011.[5] References1. ^{{cite gnis|156003|Arkwright}} {{Shelby County, Alabama}}{{Alabama-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://blog.al.com/spotnews/2013/05/shelby_county_approves_histori.html |title=Shelby County approves historical marker for Arkwright area near Vincent | al.com |publisher=Blog.al.com |date=2013-05-13 |accessdate=2014-06-05}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=AL&county=Shelby |title=Shelby County |publisher=Jim Forte Postal History |accessdate=21 October 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141022181749/http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=AL&county=Shelby |archivedate=22 October 2014 |df= }} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.shelbycountyreporter.com/2011/10/17/lost-village-of-arkwright-found/ |title=Lost village of Arkwright found |publisher=Shelby County Reporter |date=2011-10-17 |accessdate=2014-06-05}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Properties on the Alabama Register of Landmarks & Heritage |url=http://preserveala.org/alabamaregister.aspx?sm=f_b |work=Alabama Historical Commission |publisher=www.preserveala.org |accessdate=June 5, 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120904152458/http://preserveala.org/alabamaregister.aspx?sm=f_b |archivedate=September 4, 2012 |df= }} 2 : Unincorporated communities in Shelby County, Alabama|Unincorporated communities in Alabama |
