A tunnel worth slowing down for. 🚤

This is the kind of Ellesmere moment visitors keep sharing, calm water, leafy light, and that quiet feeling of discovery. One perfect reminder that there’s so much more to explore here.

Have you got a favourite Ellesmere photo or memory? Post it below and help others see why this little corner of Shropshire is so special. 😊

sun is shining and what better time to take a trip on the Llangollen Canal to see the array of wildlife and especially the young water birds. Here is a link to the Canal and River Trust's guide to help identify the different types.

Baby water birds are a joyful sight in the spring and summer months - take a walk along your local canal and see which species you can spot.

The Lyneal Trust provided members of the Whitchurch Walking Festival to start and finish various walks along the Llangollen Canal on Saturday. Picture shows part of one of the groups heading back to Lyneal Wharf and on the way they were escorted by a family swans and signets. A great day out for all concerned.
