Fradley Junction Trent and Mersey Canal UK
Fradley Junction was established in 1790. It is a junction between the Trent and Mersey and the Coventry Canals. Its construction began through an act of parliament in 1766 and was completed 11 years later. Its locks are in nearly original condition. Today Fradley Junction includes places to eat, a gift shop, the Swan Inn (which dates back to 1770) and Holiday Park. Next to it is a nature reserve which creates a beautiful country feel. The village of Fradley is a mile away. Fradley Junction is a great place to see narrowboats.

Narrowboat Life - 2018 - No.55 - Where Is Everybody? - Trent & Mersey Canal
After a scrumptious meal the evening before, we set off along the Trent & Mersey Canal. We went through the narrows and continued to Rugeley which unbelievably, was empty of narrowboats, the moorings are normally full. We continued our journey ending up at Haywood lock.
Highlight, copy and paste into search bar to see the canals we are cruising.
We just want to make enjoyable videos for people to watch and that is reward enough for us.

A video glimpse of walking the canal towpath from Tixall to Great Haywood
A walk around the Anderton Boat Lift and the River Weaver and Trent and Mersey Canal Cheshire Nov'17
An approximate 14km walk around some really fascinating scenery and views. One of those you could do all year round and I certainly recommend this for all as there are many points where you can shorten the walk. Please enjoy the film!

Trent & Mersey Canal breach
This morning wed 26 Sep the canal breached between Dutton and Bartington most spectacularly. Very unstable as chunks of earth were still breaking off and cracks along the towpath were appearing.

Please note there is a later edited version which includes stills and a video from the bottom of the breach not accessible by general public
England: The Anderton Boatlift at the Trent Mersey canal
The Anderton Boatlift in north-west England dates from 1875. The 'Cathedral of the Canals' as it is called, provides a 50 foot (15.2m) vertical link between two navigable waterways: the River Weaver and the Trent and Mersey Canal. It is the oldest boat lift in the world. Restoration started in 2001 and the boat lift was re-opened in 2002.
De Anderton Boatlift van 1875 in Groot-Brittannië, ofwel de 'Cathedral of the Canals' is de oudste schepenlift ter wereld. In 2001 is hij gerestaureerd en sinds 2002 weer in gebruik.
96. Taking my narrowboat through Harecastle tunnel on the Trent & Mersey canal
It's finally time for me to face me greatest canal tunnel fear and go through the (almost 3,000 yard long) Harecastle tunnel. It's wide enough only for one boat and has partially collapsed in the middle so headroom is extremely limited and all boats are checked before they enter (and counted in and out by dedicated tunnel-keepers). Here goes!

This video was loaded by Canal Cruising Co. Ltd., the boat hire company that has been operating longer than any other on the canals. In fact, well over 60 years.
It shows a brief insight into the working boatyard based in stone Staffordshire on the Trent and Mersey Canal
Now the oldest hire company on the canals, the company is still operated by the Wyatt family and our staff. We offer a wealth of experience and give a warm and friendly service, as standard, with special attention for our overseas visitors and novices.
The picturesque boatyard is in Stone, a small and compact market town that is easily accessible by road and rail, and that is at the centre of the canal network, offering a wide choice of routes.

Narrowboat Potteries. We had a difficult exhausting day going from Middlewich and half way up Heartbreak Hill.
We started just before 6am to get through the junction from the Wardle Canal (Middlewich arm) onto the Trent and Mersey Canal.
We only intended to clear the junction and then have breakfast. It took us seven and a half hours to find a mooring, Then we had breakfast.
We went through the outskirts of Sandbach, Wheelock, Malkins Bank and Hassell Green.
Wheelock is a long village in the civil parish of Sandbach which is in the unitary authority of Cheshire East and the ceremonial county of Cheshire, England. It is south of Sandbach on the road to Crewe. It was named after the River Wheelock.
Before its bypass was opened, among lorry drivers Wheelock was notorious for a vicious little hill running from the Trent and Mersey Canal bridge up to a bridge crossing over the North Staffordshire Railway near the junction with Zan Drive,[1] particularly when winter weather made the road icy.
Zan Drive leads to a small industrial area named Zan Industrial Park.[1]
Wheelock is currently serviced by a number of local business. The village currently has one public house, The Cheshire Cheese; along with the public house, the village also has two restaurants, a Chinese takeaway and a fish and chip shop. The Commercial Hotel the former largest public house of the village is now a dog centre; The Nags Head Hotel has reopened as the Shampaan Indian restaurant.
A small shop from which basic groceries can be purchased; and a large pet food store where all manner of foods and treats can be bought for a variety of animals also service the community.
A local farm has also converted their shop into a family day out. The business has been expanded to include an onsite café, and large children’s play area.
History[edit]
The Commercial Hotel, a Grade II Listed building and former public house
The village was named after the River Wheelock which runs through it, and in which Wheelock is derived from an Old Welsh source meaning winding river.[2][3] The first recorded name for the village is Hoileck/Hoiloch in the Domesday Book.[3][4] By 1396 the name had evolved to Quelock then in 1382 to Whelock. Two years later, in 1384 it was Welock and by 1390 the name Wheelock was settled upon.[3][5]
In 1801 the population was 189, by 1851 it was 548 and by 1901 it was 685.[6]
The village was originally a township within the ancient parish of Sandbach, which formed part of Northwich Hundred. Later on it became part of Congleton Poor Law Union, Rural Sanitary District, and Rural District.[7] Wheelock and surrounding land was made a separate civil parish in 1866, but in 1936 the civil parish was abolished, with the northern part (containing the village) being transferred to Sandbach Urban District and Sandbach civil parish, and the southern part (containing the hamlet of Wheelock Heath and surrounding farmland) being transferred to Haslington civil parish in Nantwich Rural District.[7] Ecclesiastically, Wheelock lies in the Diocese of Chester, and a separate ecclesiastical parish was formed in 1840. It first formed part of Middlewich rural deanery, but since 1880 it has been part of Congleton rural deanery.[7]
Wheelock first lay in the general Cheshire county parliamentary constituency until 1832, when it became part of the Cheshire Southern Division constituency. From 1867 until 1885 it was in the Cheshire Middle Division constituency, and from 1885 until 1948 it lay in the parliamentary constituency of Crewe.[7]
Narrowboat Potteries is the play thing of John, Tom & Ethel.
