Was Shropshire ever used in Association with a British title?

To the best of my knowledge all of the old English counties have been
incorporated into various English titles; though sometimes only the
county town e.g. Nottingham rather than Nottinghamshire. Has Shropshire
ever been incorporated into a title, and if not, why not?

Hovite...

Normans couldn't pronounce Scrobbesbyrigscir.

Also, as earldom, county, and shire were regarded as synonymous, it
might seem unnecessarily cumbersome to include the word shire in the
title.

Turenne...

Yes, as you say the two names seem to be interchangeable. Boys at
Shrewsbury School for instance are known as Salopians.

marquess...

A fascinating question, I have personally always wondered why more
people had not chosen the more romantic sounding Cornish place names
for titles, like Liskard, or Pendragon; but here is the answer to your
question. There is a listing for an ancient earldom of either
Shropshire or Shrewsbury, held by a Robert of Belleme arlund 1052-1130.
Apart from this I can only think of John Galsworthy's Forsyth Saga, in
which there is a Marquess of Shropshire, family name Farrar. Apart from
the above mentioned I know not of any other reference!
