The Edwin Clark
Our hard-working, glass sided boat trip boat is 'The Edwin Clark', named after the engineer who designed and constructed this clever bit of Victorian machinery. It seats up to 56 passengers and will accommodate two wheelchairs.
Boat trips
Board the Edwin Clark trip boat, sit back and enjoy the unique experience of being transported 50 feet between two waterways on the world's oldest working boat lift.
Listen to the informative and lively commentary and learn how the Cathedral of the Canals is a master of Victorian Engineering. You can also experience the scenic Weaver Navigation, once a busy commercial waterway which is now a haven for wildlife and a peaceful retreat for young and old to enjoy.
Trips last approximately one hour.
Running times
Our boat trips run most days at 10am, 11:15am, 1:30pm & 2:45pm.
