We cruise along the route of the Leeds and Liverpool canal from its junction with the Aire and Calder in the centre of Leeds to the Eldonian Basin at the end of the canal in Liverpool.

We also cruise along the Leigh Branch to the junction with the Bridgewater Canal and the Rufford Branch to the junction with the tidal River Douglas.  In Liverpool we look at the Stanley Dock Branch and the route of the planned extension to Albert Dock.

We show some of the interesting places along the route including the Bingley Five Rise (a staircase of 5 locks) and Wigan Pier, made famous in George Orwell's book "The Road to Wigan Pier".

It's very good

This contains a DVD of the cruise, with maps and commentary.  For a little fun we have a forward facing camera providing a high speed recap of the journey.

Great for holidays, route planning, gifts, souvenirs, birthdays and Christmas.
