North West and the Pennines

Recommended by British Waterways, this newly researched guide gives complete coverage of the inland waterways network. Featuring 4-colour Ordnance Survey mapping, with facilities and towpaths clearly shown, and comprehensive navigational notes.


Navigational notes include:
* planning a cruise,
* using a lock and bridges,
* winding holes,
* boatyards and local services,
* the history of each canal,
* places of interest,
* pubs and restaurants.


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


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.


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.
