Audlem is a stunning little town with a striking church and high street. Nice to see a place decked out with Union Flags.

Audlem is an attractive place--beware of the traffic if you are on bike though!

Audlem is a sizeable picturesque canal side village with a long history that goes back to the doomsday book. Audlem is famous for its run of 15 locks designed by Thomas Telford to raise the canal up from the Cheshire plain. The walk along the locks is regarded as one of the finest walks in lowland England.

Constructed during the 18th century, the Shropshire Union canal served as a vital artery during the Industrial Revolution. Today, the canal flows through Staffordshire, Shropshire and Cheshire from Ellesmere Port on the River Mersey to the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal in Wolverhampton.

The parish church in Audlem stands on a hill overlooking the village. Well worth a visit. http://audlemstjameschurch.org.uk/church-history/
