Monday 8th August 2011
We've continued our journey south on the Macclesfield Canal, and have now turned Northwest onto the Trent & Mersey Canal at Kidsgrove. Weather has been a bit cold and showery, but not so wet as to halt progress.
After lunch, we went down "Heartbreak Hill" to Wheelock - 26 locks in fairly quick succession! The weather was better, except for a 10 minute total downpour. The photo shows where the M6 crosses very close to a canal lock.
14.5 Miles, 27 Locks today. No swing or lift bridges!
