A visit to the National Waterways Museum Ellesmere Port in Cheshire.

The National Waterways Museum (NWM) is in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, England, at the northern end of the Shropshire Union Canal where it meets the Manchester Ship Canal). The NWM's collections and archives focus on the Britain's navigable inland waterways, including its rivers and canals, and include canal boats, traditional clothing, painted canal decorative ware and tools. It is one of several museums and attractions operated by the Canal & River Trust, the successor to The Waterways Trust.

The Shropshire Union Canal. Near the cafe outdoor seating area, also near where you could get a half hour narrowboat ride down the canal which we did.

It was originally the Wirral Branch of the Ellesmere Canal.

First thing on arrival it was a bit misty, but it soon cleared up.
