The charity making life better by water

Middlewich Canal Wharf

Middlewich

The historic town of Middlewich sits at the junctions of the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union and the Trent & Mersey Canal. It's a fantastic place for a family afternoon out and a great place to explore your local waterways.

Cycle down the towpath and keep an eye out for passing boats, go for a leisurely stroll along the canalside to discover the historic canal junction, or enjoy a relaxing boat trip to see our waterside wildlife.
