  • A Walk from Church Minshull
    A Walk to Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina photo courtesy of Bernie Stafford Aqueduct Marina, the starting point for this walk, was opened in February 2009. The marina has 147 berths, a shop and a café set in beautiful Cheshire countryside. With comprehensive facilities for moorers, visiting boaters and anyone needing to do, or have done, any work on their boat, the marina is an excellent starting point for exploring the Cheshire canal system. Starting and finishing at Church Minshull Aqueduct Marina, this walk takes in some of the prettiest local countryside as well as the picturesque village of Church Minshull and the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal. Some alternative routes are also included at the end to add variation to the walk which is about five or six miles, depending on the exact route taken. Built to join the Trent and Mersey Canal with the Chester Canal, the Middlewich Branch carried mainly coal, salt and goods to and from the potteries. Built quite late in the canal building era, like so many other canals, this canal wasn’t as successful as predicted. Today, however, it is a very busy canal providing an essential link between the Trent and Mersey Canal at Middlewich and the Llangollen Canal as well as being part of the Four Counties Ring and linking to the popular Cheshire Ring boating route. The Route Leaving the marina, walk to the end of the drive and turn north (right) onto the B5074 Church Minshull road and walk to the canal bridge. Cross the canal and turn down the steps on the right onto the towpath, then walk back under the bridge, with the canal on your left.

  • NCN Route 75 Route 75 Takes in the Cheshire Route from Audlem to Winsford
    NCN Route 75 Route 75 takes in the Cheshire route from Audlem to Winsford. Grade National Cycle Network Distance 38km/24mile Time 2-3 hours Start County boundary Nr Audlem Map OS Landranger 118 Terrain Country lanes, public roads, off road tracks Barriers N/A Toilets Public toilets in most towns you pass through Contact www.sustrans.org.uk Route Details Route 75 is unusual as it starts deep in the heart of Shropshire at Market Drayton and links into national Route 5 at Winsford. We will also share part of the route with 70 and 74. Unless you have followed the route from Market Drayton, Audlem may be a suitable starting point. If you want to start at the county boundary though, the road is very narrow with some steep climbs. Before reaching Audlem you may want to check out the famous canal locks between Swanbach and Audlem village. If you do, just divert left at Kinsey Heath and follow this road until you reach the canal. Please push your bikes down past the locks, there are lots of pedestrians and canal users and the path is not that wide. It's also quite steep! Take some time in Audlem it's a beautiful village with a lovely tea shop or two! From Audlem follow the A525 for a short distance. This is an A road though not as busy as some, it still carries some heavy traffic at times. This section is common with the Cheshire Cycleway, Route 70. The landscape is undulating and open and you will head north towards Ravensmoor and Nantwich.
