Overview

Walk 35 from the 20 More Walks book is a walk in an area we rarely visit. From the historic "home of gingerbread" Market Drayton we head towards the Shropshire Union Canal and the flight of 5 locks at Tyrley which raise the canal over 30 feet before circling round and heading back to the town with a number of historic buildings.
