This bridge is probably out of service for the time being, due to a nearby breach in the canal.

Don't stop here, this is hedgehog country.

some parts of towpath are overgrown and muddy

I had the chance to see the bridge lift ! The pub next to it was great … some years ago but now turned for the worse ( do nit order a cappuccino unless you like tepid milked coffee).

Lift bridge just outside Wrenbury. If you try really hard you can imagine your in the Netherlands crossing a small canal!

Beautifully located peaceful church, could be attended

The canal wharf at Wrenbury Bridge is rather picturesque and a lovely place to stop for a picnic. This historic lifting bridge lets narrowboats pass and is great fun to watch in operation. On a sunny day, the canal looks like it should be on a postcard, particularly if boats are moored up. Wrenbury is small but lovely and you can find a bite to eat in one of its cafes. There are two pubs at the canal bridge.

Grindley Brook is a little village just outside Whitchurch on the border of Shropshire, Cheshire and Wales. It's home to six canal locks, three of which form a staircase that lowers the canal (or raises it, depending on which way you're going!). If you're lucky enough to visit when boats are going up or down the staircase, it's worth while hanging around to watch them complete the logistical challenge.
