River Weaver Boat Trips at Anderton Boat Life and Visitor Centre

Why not take to the water this Easter and enjoy a voyage of discovery! Board the Edwin Clark trip boat and marvel at the world’s oldest boat lift. Listen to the lively commentary from the knowledgeable Boat Crew and learn how the iconic iron framework, known as the ‘Cathedral of the Canals’ is a triumph of Victorian Engineering, forging its place in history by lifting canal boats between the Weaver River Navigation and the Trent & Mersey Canal.
