2. Circa 1796. Two locks of the disused Shrewsbury Canal which was begun in 1793 by Joseph Clowes. Clowes died in 1795 and was replaced by Thomas Telford as chief engineer. The canal was completed in 1796. Features of interest on the canal include Telford's cast-iron aqueduct at Longdon-on-Tern, the inclined plane at Trench and these locks also designed by Telford, with guillotine gates. Hadley Park lock and Turnip lock are the only locks on the canal to retain their original mechanism.
