A place to stroll, jog and take the dog, the region's canal network is spearheading a new cultural and lifestyle revolution fuelled by art, heritage, creativity and people.
I sometimes cycle from Leek to Stoke on the canals. Getting a different perspective on the landscape and seeing all the industrial heritage is super interesting. It's not an easy ride the whole way. Some of it is well paved, and some not so much, but it's really enjoyable. I was pleasantly surprised to see more people cycling and walking along the canals than I expected. I had been missing out!
Very interesting article about the geography/history and leisure opportunities of the canals in Staffordshire
