Cheshire Locks Workparty

We will be starting work on Locks 47 (Church Top) and 48 (Church Bottom) at Church Lawton.

Parking info – For convenience, I will park at the small parking area in front of All Saints church on Church Lane which is off the A50 at Church Lawton. Could I ask the rest of you to park on Lawton Hall Drive which runs parallel to Church Lane. If you’re coming from Congleton, turn right at the Red Bull traffic lights along the A50 at its junction with the A34. After about half a mile turn right down Lawton Hall Drive where safe on-road parking can be found. By Sat Nav use postcode ST7 3DD. We will meet in front of the church. Access to the locks can be had by following the slightly overgrown path to the left of the entrance to the church yard down to the canal. Turn right along the towpath and it is then a short walk to lock 47.

If you’re travelling from Crewe/Alsager, follow the A50 (Liverpool Road West) over the canal and turn right down Lawton Hall Drive and follow the instructions above.

We will meet as usual at 10-00 a.m. and work through until 3-00 p.m. If you are able to stay all day, please bring a packed lunch and a drink. Be sure to wear old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty and marked with paint. Stout footwear is appropriate and bring along a waterproof in the event of rain.

I’ll lead the work party as usual (Contact No. 07708 320470).  I very much look forward to welcoming as many of you as are able to attend. (If you are likely to attend, I’d appreciate some confirmation in advance just so I’ve a rough idea of expected numbers on the day)
