lovely steep walk but we'll worth the views

"Hole in the Wall" Heritage, Steps - Steep Steps ! Please Take Care ! You are welcome to use these historic steps built at the same time as the Macclesfield Canal in 1830. Please be aware they are steep and there are 43 so you need to take care when using them and do so at your own risk. Please use the hand rails which are modern and are provided for your safety. Aqueduct Cottage at the top of these steps in the past was used as a resting place for the "boatmen" on the canal and had a stabling facility for the ponies that towed the barges. You can walk along the towpath north to Poynton and south to Macclesfield. Please enjoy our industrial heritage.

‘I got the shock of my life when I went in the Adelphi for the first time - you worked stripped - you just wore trousers and bare feet. The temperature was roughly a hundred degrees. Then, during the war, they started issuing us with rope-soled sandals. You couldn't wear shoes because the floor was just like an oil slick - oiling all those spindles’. Excerpt taken from a Bridgend Heritage Trail 8 Leaflet

A steep climb or decent but worth it

Adelphi Mill in Bollington was constructed in 1856 by brothers George and Martin Swindells, expanding on their father's existing cotton mill business, Clarence Mill. Initially spun cotton, the mill later transitioned to silk and then man-made fibers. It closed in 1975, and now houses a variety of businesses, accessible from Grimshaw Lane.

This is a lovely, beautiful walk along the Macclesfield Canal in Bolington. Here in Bollington Wharf  you can see colourful canal barges moored up, walk along a good footpath, and enjoy many access points to the canal from the town. Bollington is nestled in the western foothills of the Pennine range and is a great place to visit in its own scenic right, being bordered by the hills of the Peak District.
