Macc Canal

The stretch spans bridges 68 (on the Buxton Road) to bridge 66 (towards Macclesfield) and provides approximately 30 pegs. The dominant species are perch, roach, gudgeon, ruffe, tench and the odd carp, barbel  or bream to be caught. Car Parking and access. There is no parking adjacent to the canal. Motorists should park in St Johns Road or Pirie Road (ensuring they do not block access to residents drives) or the road immediately to the left as you turn into St Johns Road. To access the canal, cross Buxton Road and go down the steps to the towpath. Our stretch is the one to the left after you have walked under the bridge.
