Ends: 10 August 2025

10:00 am - 04:00 pm

National Waterways Museum South Pier Road Ellesmere Port Cheshire CH65 4FW

A unique opportunity to watch a LIVE horse boating display when Flower pulls Gifford, a historic narrowboat along the canal and then through a 200-year-old lock at our special Canal Town event.

Experience what it was like to live and work in the docks in bygone days when Ellesmere Port was a canal town. Enjoy a walking tour of our stunning 7 acre site led by one of our costumed guides and don’t miss the fascinating engine demos taking place in our Power Hall throughout the day.
