Produced in association with the Ironbridge Gorge
Museum Trust in 1982, this recording describes the building of Thomas Telford's
Birmingham & Liverpool Junction Canal (now nicknamed the "Shroppie"),
the enormous difficulties he encountered and the amazing engineering features he created to overcome the obstacles of the landscape. |
 |
The DVD version has been digitally re-mastered from the 1982 camera tapes.
As it was the first title we released on DVD we decided to keep the 'feel' of the original by retaining the contemporary commentary and graphics.

An additional feature on the DVD is a section of 'out takes'.
For more information on the "Shroppie", see the
Shropshire Union Canal Feature.
