Folk festivals come in all shapes and sizes!

Morris dancing  on the Town Quay

We saw jazz bands, blues harmonica players, guitarists, singers, an Appalachian folk dance troupe, people selling all kinds of woven yoghurt goods and traditional crafts. We didn't need to go to the main Saturday night concert..we could hear it from the boat. Even after it began to rain again very hard as the main act of the evening was due on stage! Today we headed for Anderton,  where tomorrow we will take the boat lift down onto the River Weaver. http://canalrivertrust.org.uk/Anderton-boat-lift/history

  1. We loved the Middlewich festival last year. Standout acts were Hat Fitz & Cara Robinson, and a trio of student musicians from the Glasgow Conservatory on accordion, guitar and percussion.

    Hope you enjoy the Anderton!
