About

Dawley & Aqueduct is a ward in Telford and Wrekin that blends a historic town core with surrounding residential neighbourhoods. Dawley town grew through coal and ironworking in the 18th and 19th centuries and was later incorporated into the Telford New Town expansion, which added housing, shops and community facilities from the 1960s onwards. The town centre contains local shops, a community library and social venues, while primary and secondary schools, health services and sports pitches serve the wider population. Public transport links connect the area with Telford town centre and other parts of the borough.

Aqueduct sits just north of Dawley and carries a name that recalls the canal-era engineering that crossed the local valley. The ward includes pockets of open space, play areas and fragments of former industrial routes now used as pedestrian and cycle links. Volunteer groups and parish organisations run regular events and projects that focus on local history and green-space management, and small businesses operate from parade sites and light industrial units that continue the area’s working landscape.
