The canal suddenly emerges from a tree lined cutting into the tranquil setting of Worsley. The canal turns right here, with a short arm straight ahead which led to Worsley Delph and the Duke of Bridgewater's underground canal. On the left is the splendid Worsley Packet House, from the steps of which passenger boats once departed for Manchester.
