North West and the Pennines

Newly researched. This guide features 4-colour Ordnance Survey mapping, with facilities and towpaths clearly shown, and comprehensive navigational notes. Newly restored/opened canals and rivers are included.


Navigational notes include:
• planning a cruise,
• using a lock and bridges,
• winding holes,
• boatyards and local services.


Also:
• the history of each canal,
• places of interest,
• pubs and restaurants,
• opportunities for walking and cycling.


Practical spiral binding makes the guide easy-to-use. A flap around the foredge clearly identifies the guide and provides for better display in retail outlets.


Rival publications cover one canal or canal-ring only. Nicholson guides have logical groupings of waterways: all recognised circular routes are contained within single editions.


Waterways covered in this guide – Aire & Calder Navigation, Bridgewater Canal, Calder & Hebble Navigation, Huddersfield Broad Canal, Huddersfield Narrow Canal, Lancaster Canal, Leeds & Liverpool Canal, Macclesfield Canal, Peak Forest and Ashton Canals, Rochdale Canal, Trent & Mersey Canal.
