Description: | The flourishing home markets meant that canals and railway wagons played an important part in salt transport before road transport became popular. Company narrow boats and barges were used on the Trent and Mersey canal and on the River Weaver. The museum interprets this history of salt transportation through its associated collections, which include a rare 1900s pitched-roofed salt wagon. | Subjects: | Transport | Source: | Cornucopia - Discovering UK Collections | Address: | Ollershaw Lane
