The River Weaver and the Weaver Navigation
The River Weaver and the Weaver Navigation
The Navigation has used the Weston Canal [foreground] since 1810, as it provided better access to the Mersey. The river [behind the bank] was the tidal route to the Mersey before then, but is no longer navigable because Frodsham Lock is disused.
