Thomas Telford - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1233 words)
Telford was responsible for the repair to the northern Shropshire end of the bridge.
Telford's reputation in Shropshire led to his appointment in 1793 to manage the detailed design and construction of the Ellesmere Canal, linking the ironworks and collieries of Wrexham via the north-west Shropshire town of Ellesmere, with Chester, utilising the existing Chester Canal, and then the River Mersey.
Telford was consulted in 1806 by the King of Sweden about the construction of a canal between Gothenburg and Stockholm.
