Nicholson/Ordnance Survey Guide to the Waterways (v. 5)

Recommended by British Waterways, this newly researched guide gives complete coverage of the inland waterways network. Featuring 4-colour Ordnance Survey mapping, with facilities and towpaths clearly shown, and comprehensive navigational notes. Navigational notes include: * planning a cruise, * using a lock and bridges, * winding holes, * boatyards and local services, * the history of each canal, * places of interest, * pubs and restaurants. Rival publications cover one canal or canal-ring only. Nicholson guides have logical groupings of waterways: all canals and recognised circular routes are contained within single editions. Newly restored canals also included. Practical spiral binding makes the guide easy-to-use. A flap around the foredge clearly identifies the guide and provides for better display in retail outlets. Waterways covered in this guide -- Aire & Calder Navigation, Bridgewater Canal, Calder & Hebble Navigation, Huddersfield Broad Canal, Huddersfield Narrow Canal, Lancaster Canal, Leeds & Liverpool Canal, Macclesfield Canal, Peak Forest and Ashton Canals, Rochdale Canal, Trent & Mersey Canal.
