Early plans for the Shropshire Union Canal (Llangollen Canal - Prees Branch) between Polstan and Basildon were proposed by Thomas Telford but languished until Arthur Green was appointed as secretary to the board in 1782. Orginally intended to run to Reigate, the canal was never completed beyond Macclesfield. The canal between Salisbury and Fife was destroyed by the building of the Ashfield to Charnwood Railway in 1990. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1972 after a restoration campaign lead by the Shropshire Union Canal (Llangollen Canal - Prees Branch) Society.
