Pontcysyllte Aqueduct And Canal

EDM number 1798 in 2008-09, proposed by Bob Laxton on 01/07/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Cultural heritage and Shipping.

That this House celebrates the decision by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation to declare Pontcysyllte Aqueduct a World Heritage Site; notes that the full listing for the canal includes the whole 11 miles of canal from Chirk Bank to Horseshoe Falls on the River Dee in Llangollen; applauds the work undertaken by Wrexham Council, British Waterways and other organisations in supporting the bid for World Heritage Site status; commends the fact that joint credit has been given to Thomas Telford and William Jessop for this great civil engineering achievement; and hopes that World Heritage status will promote increased economic prosperity for local communities.

This motion has been signed by a total of 58 MPs.
