Frodsham Marsh Farm and Ship Canal

Frodsham Marsh is an extensive area of drained land running alongside the M56 between Runcorn and Ince Marshes, and covering some 10 sq.km in area. Despite its proximity to Frodsham and Helsby it has a very remote feel to it. Frodsham Marsh Farm is in the north-west corner alongside the Manchester Ship Canal and is uninhabited. But there is a jetty there and MSC workings. Weston Point is seen across the Weaver and Canal with its ex-ICI chemical works.
