Sunday Stroll: Woodland Waterway



A stroll along the canal towpath is a nice easy way of getting a bit of fresh air and there are plenty of places to walk by a canal within easy reach of Ashton.

Today's photo shows the wooded section of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal between Stalybridge and Mossley. Locks 9w and 10w are close together, so the short pound between sometimes gets a bit shallow.

There was at one time a lock keeper's cottage on the right next to this lock, but that has long since gone, along with lock keepers.
