Gnosall and the Shropshire Union Canal
Advertisement
We first follow the Way for the Millennium, a disused railway track connecting the towns of Shrewsbury and Stafford, before traversing a farm growing strawberries in polytunnels. From there we carry on towards the hamlet of Upper Cowley where we join the Shroppie at bridge 32.
After passing through the short Cowley tunnel, we leave the canal by bridge 34 and walk back through the village to our starting point.
Meet at 10:45 for 11:00 start on Thursday 10th September 2026 at The Acorn (formerly The Royal Oak), Newport Road, Gnosall Heath, Staffordshire ST20 0BL
