At COALPORT, two miles from Ironbridge, are the china manufactories, which are well worth the inspection of the visitant; as indeed is the whole of this curious and romantic neighbourhood; where may be seen winding glens, vast hills, and hanging woods: while the bosom of the noble Severn, which so essentially contributes to the prosperity of this district, in bearing away the articles produced here, adds also to the general beauty of the country through which it glides. There is also a chair manufactory belonging to Messrs. Edge & Son, who were awarded a prize medal at the Great Exhibition of 1851. The market is held on Friday at Ironbridge, and a fair at Madeley May 29th. The parish of Madeley contained, in 1841, 7,368 inhabitants, and in 1851, 8,522. BENTHALL is a parish—the village being situated within the liberties of Wenlock, nearly four miles from the town of that name. There are pottery works in this neighbourhood, which give employment to many of the inhabitants; and the river Severn, which flows through the parish, provides the means of distributing the articles manufactured to various parts. The parish church of St. Bartholomew is the only place of worship. The living of Benthall is a perpetual curacy, in the gift of the vicar of Much Wenlock; the Rev. William H. Wayne is the present incumbent. Population of the parish, according to the returns made in 1841, 587, and by those for 1851, 530. DAWLEY MAGNA is a populous parish, comprising the townships of DAWLEY PARVA or LITTLE DAWLEY, and MALINS LEE, and the market town of DAWLEY or DAWLEY GREEN—the last named situated about two miles N. from Madeley, and four miles W. by S. from Shiffnall, a station on the Shrewsbury and Chester and the Shrewsbury and Birmingham railways.

The parish church of St. Leonard (or the Holy Trinity) is situated in Dawley Parva, and there are chapels of ease at Little Dawley and Malins Lee.
