It's a very archaic word. I've never heard it used before, except in the terms "playwright" (usually in the context of Shakespeare) and "The Wright Report" (a TV show). Very rare word these days. Most native speakers won't know the meaning of "shipwright" or "wheelwright" without looking these words up in Google or a dictionary.
