Acton Bridge
Click here to visit GoNorthwich - Your Complete Guide to Northwich
Acton Bridge is close to the River Weaver and the emerging Weaver Way, a new network of paths which stretch from Audlem to Frodsham. It is path that will take you to tranquil countryside, abundant wildlife, unique culture, rich heritage and vibrant events.
If you are walking the River Weaver or Trent and Mersey Canal be sure to drop off at Davenports Farm Shop and Tea Rooms. They serve a wide range of teas and coffee with delicious locally made cakes.
The Weaver Way crosses the river at Dutton Lock and passes under the impressive railway viaduct. The fine stone 20 arch structure was designed by George Stephenson.
In nearby Dutton, Blue Bell Cottage Gardens extend to 1.5 acres, wrapped around the cottage and extending up to the Trent & Mersey canal towpath. There are seven distinct areas, each interconnected with gravel or grass paths. The gardens are open to the public from the end of March to the end of September, Wednesday to Sunday.
