Wharf Tavern
Wharf Tavern
The Wharf Tavern sits alongside the Shropshire Union Canal at Goldstone Bridge (Bridge No. 55) near Cheswardine and Market Drayton, making it a convenient stop for both boaters and road travellers.
The pub is a free house serving traditional home-cooked food and cask ales, with a garden for summer dining and open fires in winter.
A campsite operates directly opposite the pub, offering electric hook-up, water, clean toilet facilities, and a secure key-coded gate. The site is run by the same friendly, family-oriented team behind the tavern.
