Macclesfield Canal leaflet

This tourist and boating leaflet, which includes a very detailed strip map of the canal, is available from our leaflet boxes at Marple sanitary station and Hall Green stop lock, and many of the retail businesses along the canal. Also UK residents can send a stamped, self addressed envelope, minimum size 8.5"x4" (215mm x 100mm) to the society - address below. Overseas residents should see instructions below on how to obtain a copy.

The current version was published in August 2003. The latest changes are included in the web version of the map accessible online - click here.

The Macclesfield
& Upper Peak Forest
Canals Guide

The society has published a 48 page A5 booklet, The Macclesfield & Upper Peak Forest Canals Guide.

Now in its third edition - just a few copies remain at GBP 3.00. Order now!

The guide contains a description of the canals' routes with some history, pictures and other interesting information together with details of facilities, shops, pubs, etc. of value to boaters. It also contains general maps giving locational information more suitable to road users.

This edition includes the Upper Peak Forest Canal, with its own map. This inclusion reflects the big increase in traffic up the Macc since the restoration of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal and the Bugsworth Basins.

The guide is supported by advertising to enable the low price. Profits go The Macclesfield Canal Society. The first edition was reviewed in Waterways World, June 1998 p.62.
