I think there are at least three water points (Junction of Trent and Mersey and Wardle Canal, between Anderson Boats and main road bridge to the north, and the Big Lock.). I guess both Anderson Boats and Middlewich Boats would also provide water if asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one at the junction is a non standard thread, its smaller than normal. most people shove the hose on the spout of the other outlet, I have an adaptor that screws on. I can only think of the two points. The next are Wheelock south on T&M, Anderton North on T&M or Cholmonderston Lock on the Middlewich branch. thats off the top of my head.

Correct, there are 3 water points in Middlewich, and not much else. No bins other than the council tip near Croxton aqueduct, nearest CRT bins are Wheelock, Barbridge, Anderton. No Elsan unless one of the yards can oblige, nearest CRT ones are Wheelock, Nantwich, Calverly, Anderton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tizzy Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 It always astonishes us that there are NO elsan and rubbish facilities between Calverley and Anderton ! Water only at Middlewich,nothing on the Middlewich Branch (except the marinas) and last time we went that way the elsan at Anderton was out of action ! We were desperate by then and had to go to the boatyard opposite and pay to use the facilities. We don't mind paying because the marinas have to maintain things but think CART should invest in some more facilities around this area Tizzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why it never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

British Waterways had it up for sale for years I think it still has a British Waterways for sale board up or remains of one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth E Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 If you've rubbish in plastic bags there are several stretegically placed small bins along the roads you could use, maybe a bag or two each time. I don't think it's a crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know why the water tap at Barbridge Junction was removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
