Saltisford Canal Centre

Saltisford Canal Centre sits on the Saltisford Canal Arm, a short historic waterway in the heart of Warwick, just below the Hatton lock flight on the Grand Union Canal.

Originally the terminus of the Warwick and Birmingham Canal, opened in 1799, the arm is now managed by the Saltisford Canal Trust, a registered charity dedicated to restoring and preserving the site.

The centre welcomes visitors arriving by narrowboat, on foot, or by road. A restored canal warehouse houses a visitor centre and shop, while gardens, orchards, and picnic areas line the towpath.

Narrowboat moorings are available, and a wildlife QR trail adds an educational element for families. The site offers a quiet green refuge within easy walking distance of Warwick town centre.
