Looking north as the Caldon Canal meanders towards Milton, Stockton Brook, Endon, Cheddleton and Froghall. The canal passes through a long strip of deciduous woodland which includes the track bed of the disused railway between Caldon Low and Stoke (off to the left), and the slopes down to the River Trent (off to the right). New metal piling is being installed by the towpath, but for now they've stopped for lunch!
