Ellesmere Port is an industrial town and port located in Cheshire, situated on the southern banks of the Mersey River.
The town's history is deeply rooted in its industrial heritage, particularly its role in the development of Britain's canal network. Originally a small settlement, it grew significantly during the Industrial Revolution when the Manchester Ship Canal and the Shropshire Union Canal met here. The town played a crucial role in the region's industrial development, serving as a major port and manufacturing center.
Today, Ellesmere Port maintains its industrial character while also embracing its cultural heritage, particularly through the preservation of its maritime and industrial history. The town is notably home to the National Waterways Museum, which celebrates the history of Britain's canals and the people who lived and worked on them.
