Hi Cath,
I am Looking for the same information what I can tell you The Wolverhampton Corrugated Iron Company came about after the expansion of the canal system in the Ellesmere Port Area.
The Company also had a name change to Burnells Iron/Steel Company closed in 1948.
The company built house for their employees many came up from the steel works in Staffordshire such as Wednesbury .
There was many house built on the Whitby Road these house seem to have a connection as they where named villas .
My Great Grandfather came up from Wednesbury and lived in Pooltown Villa's there is further information at the Cheshire Archives also google the company name .
My family name is Byrnes good luck
