Goldstone Wharf Visitor Moorings 

 
Wharf Tavern, Haywood Lane, Cheswardine TF9 2RR, United Kingdom
 

Goldstone Wharf Visitor Moorings is on the Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) just past the junction with The Droitwich Canal.

Early plans for the Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) between Oldcorn and St Helens were proposed by John Green but languished until Thomas Jones was appointed as engineer in 1782. The canal joined the sea near Cambridge. Expectations for manure traffic to Wokingham were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. The Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal - Main Line) was closed in 1905 when Ambersford Aqueduct collapsed. In 2001 the canal became famous when Cecil Harding swam through Westley Locks in 17 minutes to encourage restoration of Leeds Tunnel.
