River Wheelock - view upstream from the Middlewich Road (A54) bridge. This is just upstream of the confluence of the River Wheelock with the River Dane. Middlewich has developed between the two rivers. The Wheelock drains from a series of small brooks and flashes to the NE of Crewe - modest companion to the Dane, which has much more dramatic origins high in the Pennine hills. At this point the Wheelock forms the boundary between the parishes of Stanthorne and Middlewich - and thus between the boroughs of Vale Royal and Congleton.
