The Navigation
Beartown Brewery's only pub in Stockport was built to service the workers from the flourmill next door and the bargees on the nearby now closed and filled-in canal who finished their journey with a well earned pint. Now located on the busy Lancashire Hill roundabout this former local pub of the year was prior to this once managed by Manchester United’s Alex Stepney.

The Stockport Canal
The plaque marks the line of the canal which
terminated behind Nelstrop's flour mill. It
opened in 1797 as a branch of the Ashton Canal
to serve the developing town of Stockport.
Known as Lanky Cut, it carried goods
and passengers to and from the many mills
along the 4.2 miles from the junction at
Clayton to its terminus at Stockport.

Albion Mills, Stockport
Founded in 1820 and enlarged in 1893, the Albion Mills are still in use for flour milling by Nelstrops. The unusual location close to the centre of Stockport results from the development of the mills alongside the terminal basin of the Stockport branch of the Ashton Canal. Little trace of the latter now remains.
