More Than Water: Christmas Canal Walk

Sat, 21/12/2019 - 15:00
Meet at Middleport Matters Community Hub
Join us for a special festive walk along the Trent & Mersey Canal and thorough Middleport, and find out about our historic waterways and the world-famous industry they helped create. As the afternoon turns to dusk, we will follow the route taken by boats an horses for over two centuries and seek out the famous factories, wharves, mills and bottle ovens along our way. We will then return to reflect with a warm drink at the Middleport Matters Community Hub.
 
Wrap up warm, bring a torch or lantern and meet at 3pm on Saturday 21 December at Middleport Matters Community Trust, 177-179 Newcastle Street, Middleport, ST6 3QJ. Potteries Heritage Society’s Andy Perkin will be your guide and the walk is part of the More Than Water project funded by Canal & River Trust.
