Geocache Description:

Burscough to Tarleton Canal is a branch of the Leeds Liverpool canal and was to be closed by the British Waterways. However, British opinion was so great they made the Ribble Link, thus linking Lancaster and Leeds / Liverpool canals at Preston.

Fettlers Wharf Marina is to be situated in the heart of Lancashire on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal in the quaint village of Rufford on Station Road. The Marina can be accessed by several different routes, trains, buses and road. The A59 from Liverpool is easily accessible also M6 Junction No. 27 is 15 minutes drive from the Marina. Fettlers Wharf is located on the Rufford branch of the Leeds and Liverpool, canal giving access to Tarleton, River Douglas, Ribble link to Lancaster, Burscough main line, Liverpool, Leeds, London and all the network. The facilities and amenities for Fettlers Wharf Marina, will include top of the range moorings, toilets, showers, laundry, lounge, diesel, pump out and parking in a secure and rural location providing an ideal mooring for all boaters. Other features available to the general public will include restaurant and tea rooms, all being accessible for the disabled. Fettlers Wharf will be exclusively landscaped and at all times take into consideration the environment. Fettlers Wharf of course, will open up job opportunities within Rufford and the surrounding area. Fettlers Wharf plans to start work in early spring 2003 and aims for completion in the summer of 2003 providing moorings for 100 boats in an ideal location. Reservations are now being taken.
