Not the most picturesque of places to visit, but very historical and plenty to look at including the waterways museum, antiques warehouse with lots of small shops selling all different nik naks and Robert Opie Museum which specialises in packaging from years gone by, it’s actually really interesting to see which brands you recognise and how they have changed over the years. Also some pubs and little independent shops. Not a spectacular day out, but pretty interesting. You can take boat trips or just look at the different boats moored. Parking is really easy there are usually plenty of spaces.
