Red Lion PH (Winsford) is on the River Weaver (Main Line) a short distance from Barcorn.
Early plans for the River Weaver (Main Line) between Amberspool and Barcester were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Thomas Dadford was appointed as secretary to the board in 1782. From a junction with The Leeds and Liverpool Canal at Taunford the canal ran for 23 miles to Barnsley. Restoration of Dundee Locks was funded by a donation from Edward Smith

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring). A "getting-a-bit-rickety" wooden pontoon type mooring right outside pub and just before Winsford bridge (eastbound). Room for two 60' boats, no services. Very slippery!.
