Step back in time and experience what it was like to live and work in the docks when Ellesmere Port was a canal town.

Stroll through a landscape of Victorian buildings, locks, stables and cottages … and meet some interesting characters on the way!

‘Art on the Cut’ is the theme for this Canal Town event:

  • Explore our exhibits and find the famous ‘Roses & Castles’ paintings on the many objects found on working and living boats.
  • Bring your sketch pad and join some of our local artists who will be drawing and painting live on site.
