    GRAND TRUNK The Lady Beth creeps through Bridge 164 (Booth Lane, Middlewich) in search of a milepost! Photo Roger Evans July/August 2020 www.trentandmerseycanalsociety.org.uk Chairman’s Bit Will July 4th be celebrated as “Independence Day” in England now as well as in the USA??? We have been making a short 1-day cruise each week since they were allowed, but on 4th July we will be heading off for our much-delayed annual “Spring” cruise around the “Four Counties Ring” (and Yes, we have booked Harecastle Tunnel). By the time you read this we will be safely back home plan- ning our next outing (probably the Caldon to see if we fit through Froghall Tunnel). How do I know that we will be safely back home before you read this? Simple, because it is Margaret and I who will be posting it to you … What condition will be find our canal in ? Based on our short local outings, I expect to find the towpath almost invisible from the canal in many places and several bottom lock-gates to be much leakier with locks slower to fill. A couple of weeks of busy boat movements will probably get those gates to swell-up and seal better again, but I suspect that the “invisible” towpaths will take longer to reappear. Never mind, we will enjoy our first week’s cruise regardless and some days we may even forget “Covid-19” still exists. That’s what canal boating is all about. Thank you to the 14 people who returned a Gift-Aid form (physically or on- line) after my appeal in the last issue.

Four Counties Ring from Stone Cruise this route from : Stone View the latest version of this pdf Four-Counties-Ring-from-Stone-Cruising-Route.html Cruising Days : 8.00 to 12.00 Cruising Time : 60.00 Total Distance : 110.00 Number of Locks : 93 Number of Tunnels : 2 Number of Aqueducts : 0 From the Shropshire Union Canal through the rolling Cheshire Plains to the Trent & Mersey Canal, the Staffordshire & Worcester Canal and back via the Shropshire Union the Four Counties Ring is one of the more rural Cruising Rings and is best savoured slowly. The four counties that the routes passes through are Cheshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and Shropshire. Highlights include the Industrial Canal Heritage of the Stoke-on-Trent potteries region, the wealthy pasturelands of Cheshire, to the stunning remote sandstone cuttings of Shropshire, as well as the Harecastle Tunnel at 2926 yards one of the longest in Britain and reputed to be haunted by a headless corpse whose body was dumped in the Canal. This is an energetic cruise over 7 days, and more leisurely over 10/11 nights Cruising Notes Day 1 The bulk of Stone lies to the east bank. There is a profusion of services and shops in Stone with the High Street being pedestrianized and lying just a short walk from the canal it is very convenient. South of Stone the trees surrounding the canal thin out somewhat opening up views of land that is flatter than a lot that came before it giving far reaching views across endless farmland.

  • Canal and Salt Town Middlewich, Cheshire Heritage Research
    Canal and Salt Town Middlewich, Cheshire Heritage Research Report Middlewich Town Counci April 2009 SLR Ref: 406.1788.00002 406.1788.00002 Middlewich: Canal and Salt Town MIDDLEWICH CANAL AND SALT TOWN Introduction This report is one of the products of an exciting project started by Middlewich Town Council under their Middlewich Vision programme. The idea was to celebrate the salt and canal tradition of this historic town, and a successful bid to the Heritage Lottery Fund in 2007 allowed the Canal and Salt Town project to begin. The project included a canal boat festival and design of a trail along the canal, with interpretation boards to explain the history of the area. Research into the salt industry and canals, as well as gypsies and canal families at Middlewich resulted in information which was used for interpretation boards, an exhibition and a trail leaflet. It has also led to this report and archive that is available for educational purposes and for study by anyone who wishes to explore further, as well as a popular booklet which is a summary of the two aspects that has made Middlewich the place it is today. The sources used in this report are fully referenced at the end of each chapter. The report is presented in seven sections separated by blue dividers: 1 Salt 2 Canals 3 Gypsies 4 Geology 5 Flint Mill 6 Historic maps 7 Figures including photographs, reconstruction drawings and diagrams The report describes how the main focus for past communities at Middlewich was dominated by salt production. Salt was always important as a means to preserve food, and, as well as having a large number of other economic benefits, the uses that salt was put to by the people of Middlewich developed over the centuries into a highly sophisticated chemical industry.

Middlewich was once a thriving centre for the excavation of salt, the canal played an important part in the success of the industry in the town. Since the decline of the salt industry, the town is a friendly place with a good range of shops and pubs to be found. The town is home to a popular folk and boat festival which runs for three days every year over a bank holiday weekend. It has been going since 1990 missing only one year due to foot and mouth. Folk musicians play at a number of venues, and it is estimated to bring in 30,000 visitors and 400 narrowboats over the course of the weekend. Cruising Notes Day 1 You are only travelling for an hour today before the 1st stop, so just enough time to get the hang of the boat, and stow your belongings, and not have to feel that you are rushing, as you are about to slowwww right down!! You may even want to spend your first night in Nantwich and not move off until tomorrow, as you have plenty of time, and Nantwich is a beautiful town, adorned with boutiques, antiques, cafes, pubs and restaurants and steeped in history, it is a medieval market town famous for the black and white timbered buildings dotted around the town.

  • North Wales & Borders Waterway Partnership
    North Wales & Borders Waterway Partnership Annual Report Introduction This is the first written annual report produced by the Canal and River Trust’s North Wales and Borders Waterways Partnership. Each year the partnership reports back to the local waterways community at its annual meeting. For the last two years the Partnership’s annual meeting has been part of ‘Showcase’ events – at Lion Quays near Chirk in 2015 and at Chester Racecourse in 2016. In 2017 our Showcase is on 13 October at Memorial Court in Northwich. At the Showcases as Chair of the Partnership I outline the partnership’s activity whilst Wendy Capelle, the North Wales and Borders Waterways manager, describes the work of the local waterways team and Richard Parry, Chief Executive of the Trust, talks about the work of the Trust as a whole. Inevitably this means that the descriptions of the local work of the Canal and River Trust is presented in greatly summarised form and is heard only to those people who happen to be able to attend the Showcase. To provide better information this year we are supplementing the presentations with this written report. This report is available in electronic form for circulation to our friends and partners amongst the waterways and wider communities. As this is our first written report it briefly looks back, and forwards, as well as covering the activities in the North Wales and Borders region in 2017. I hope that you find the contents interesting. If you wish to know more about anything in this report please contact us on: [email protected] 0303 040 4040 Much more information about the Trust is available on canalrivertrust.org.uk Brenda Harvey Chair of Waterway Partnership, North Wales and Borders 2 The Canal & River Trust National Picture 2017 The Canal & River Trust is the guardian of 2,000 miles of historic waterways across England and Wales, caring for the nation’s third largest collection of listed structures, as well as museums, archives, and hundreds of important wildlife sites.
