One of series of photographs of the various Steelworks based at the end of the Shropshire Union Canal. One of the firms included the Wolverhampton Corrugated Iron Co Ltd which was established in 1857 by John and Joseph Jones, at Church Lane, Wolverhampton. As the company expanded it relocated to Shrubbery Works, Wolverhampton in 1880. In about 1905 the company relocated to Ellesmere Port to gain ready access to the coast as most of its orders were for export. Most of the Steelworkers came from Wolverhampton, and stories of the time said that they walked along the canal from Wolverhampton to get to Ellesmere Port. My Grandfather was one of those men. |

Hi Warwick do you have any more info on these steelworks as my husbands grandfather was also one of the workers who walked the canal from Wolverhampton to Ellesmere Port. |
