Britain's What's On Event Guide
Boats, Trains and Automobiles. Getting In and Out of Kidsgrove
Heritage Open Day: Join our engaging local historian for an entertaining tour of key sites which have contributed to Kidsgrove's excellent connectivity, the people who made it happen and the reasons people wanted to come to Kidsgrove! Today, Kidsgrove in North Staffordshire is a well-connected town, situated on the Trent & Mersey canal, close to J16 of the M6 with a railway station and good 4G connection. The town was created by a then new transport innovation, the canal. Luckily too, when the railways came, Harecastle was a junction, still important today. Roads too were important, even before Wedgwood got behind the first turnpike road through the town in 1765.
