Foulridge Wharf and Café

Highlight • Cafe

Just before you get back onto the canal, there is a free water pump next to the cafe and toilets, ideal for refilling water bottles. It's very old fashioned and has to be opened to get the tap out!

Foulridge Tunnel, Leeds and Liverpool Canal

Highlight • Bridge

This is a mile-long tunnel locates on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. It is the longest tunnel on the canal and due to its narrow design boats would once be legged through it. This is a risky practice where people would walk along the tunnel walls pulling the boats. Today, access to the tunnel is managed through timed light signals to ensure safe passage.
