Uttoxeter Canal

Owing to the Covid pandemic, there has not been any further restoration work on the Uttoxeter Canal. However, during 2021, the Caldon & Uttoxeter Canals Trust installed commemorative plaques on all but one of the mileposts. A Heritage Open Day was held in September 2021 at Crumpwood, where visitors could see the restoration plans and were able to stroll along part of the milepost walk. Members of the trust regularly inspect the canal sections between Alton and Crumpwood and are looking forward to resuming activities later in 2022.
