Converted stables by the Shropshire Union Canal at Audlem, Cheshire
By the side of the winding hole* below Lock No 15 and Moss Hall Bridge, this building has been for years the headquarters for a canal based drama company and their floating theatre. http://www.day-star-theatre.co.uk/
* winding hole (pronounced as in wind = breeze) is a wide section of the canal where narrowboats up to 70 feet (the maximum accommodated by the locks) can be turned round.

The winding hole at the bottom of Audlem Flight, Shropshire
If you have arrived from the north, this is the last place where a long narrowboat can be turned. To go on south-eastwards through the first of the locks would mean either coming back down backwards, or going to the top of the flight of fifteen, plus the Adderley five, then turning to come back down again, forty locks-worth of hard work and a minimum six hours, more likely eight to ten, especially if the Shroppie Fly "intervenes".
