Exploring Congleton - Congleton Park, Biddulph Valley Way & Macclesfield Canal

#congleton #uk #exploring

Today we are in the east of Cheshire at the old market town of Congleton. A settlement since the neolithic period, Congleton Town became a prosperous market town. Today it’s a beautiful spot for a walk or a run with lots of route options. Today we start from Wetherspoons on Bridge Street and head up to the town hall before dropping down to the park we then head over to the Biddulph Valley Way and up to the Macclesfield Canal, looping around to Astbury and heading back into town via Lambert’s Lane about 4.5 miles in total. Alternatively you could head up the up the Dane Valley Way for a visit to Biddulph Grange Gardens or perhaps up The Cloud or onto the Gritstone Trail.
