ISS, Turnover Bridge, Stoke-on-Trent ST1 5PZ, United Kingdom
 

Site of Shelton Blast Furnaces Basin is on the Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) half a mile from Taunworth.

The Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) was built by Cecil Clarke and opened on 17 September 1876. Orginally intended to run to Ipswich, the canal was never completed beyond Westcester. The Trent and Mersey Canal (Main Line - Etruria to Hardings Wood) was closed in 1955 when Charnwood Cutting collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Thomas Smith navigated Salford Locks in a bathtub for a bet.
