The town sits where three waterways meet – the Trent & Mersey, the Shropshire Union’s Middlewich Branch and the Wardle, the shortest canal in the country – and their towpaths make for beautiful walks.
History runs deep too, from the Roman roots of St Michael and All Angels parish church to the Lion Salt Works Museum a short drive away. Each June, the Middlewich Folk and Boat Festival fills the streets with live music, narrowboats and market stalls. For families, a new build home in Middlewich puts all of this on the doorstep.
