Welcome to our New Website

Leeds and Liverpool Canal Society Website

Leeds and Liverpool Canal Society Website

Welcome to the Leeds and Liverpool Canal Society Website. The last year has been a difficult one for the Society. With no canal festivals, no school visits and no open days, it has been hard for us to spread our message celebrating the heritage of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal.  But we haven’t been idle.

We have maintained publication of the Society Newsletter Clogs & Gansey; we have made a video of our heritage boat Kennet; and we have revised and updated our website, as you can see.  The video, which is an interim version which will be updated when we are back in action again with Kennet, was funded by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, under their Heritage Emergency Fund; the revision of our website was funded by a grant from the Canal & River Trust, under their Waterways Charities Appeal.  Our sincere thanks to both of these organisations.

We will be continually revising and extending the website. So keep in touch with the Society and the Website by subscribing to our Newsfeed in the footer of any web page.
