Ellesmere Port Wedding Venues
Ellesmere Port is the largest of the townships in the southern end of the Wirral Peninsular of Cheshire. The town has been well known for the Shell petrochemical refinery at Stanlow since 1922 and for its largest employer, the Vauxhall Motor Company, which has been manufacturing cars there since the early 1960s.
Before the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal the town of Ellesmere Port actually lay on the south bank of the River Mersey. In 1792, under the chairmanship of Lord Edward Clive, several Shropshire businessmen planned to construct an artificial canal which would connect the rivers Severn, Mersey and Dee, and on 30th April 1793 Parliament Granted permission to begin its construction. The canal basin area into which the Ellesmere Port to Chester Canal connected via Whitby Locks came to be known as Ellesmere Port.
The so-called Ellesmere Canal, later to become known as the Shropshire Union Canal, surveyed and built by the celebrated engineer, Thomas Telford, came into being. Telford bequeathed the town a complete scheme of locks, docks and warehouses, and maintenance facilities.
Contemporary Ellesmere Port has a main shopping centre, the Port Arcades, as well as its busy Market. Ellesmere Port's association with the canal system is commemorated at the Boat Museum, which has become a major tourist attraction in the region.
