August 19, 2023, Nantwich Aqueduct

The Nantwich Aqueduct, a Grade II listed bridge, stands as a testament to the vision of Thomas Telford, its construction being finalized in 1828. This aqueduct gracefully bears the weight of the Shropshire Union Canal, serving as the remarkable 'Gateway to Nantwich.' In 2015, restoration efforts were undertaken. This ambitious endeavour, secured victory in the restoration and historic environment category of the prestigious Canal & River Trust's Living Waterways Awards in 2016.

The road up from Whitchurch is fine. The road down is very narrow. Make sure you can stop quickly if you meet a car coming up the hill. The section between the farm and the T junction is very potholed with lots of loose gravel.
