About this video

The canal wharf at Wappenshall in Telford is considered to be one of the most significant in the history of inland waterways in England.<br />Completed in 1797, the stunning pair of warehouses is now owned by Telford & Wrekin Council and the Shrewsbury and Newport Canals Trust, who have spent the last few years renovating the buildings.<br />The larger of the two buildings will eventually be a visitor centre, while the smaller warehouse will feature a café set to open this year. Funds raised by the café will go into the continued renovation and preservation of the historic wharf.
