Tixall Wide is a favourite location for many boaters. The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal opens out unexpectedly around half a mile west of its junction with the Trent and Mersey Canal at Great Haywood. Also known as "The Broad Water", the wide was created to give the impression of a lake when viewed from the nearby (but now gone) Tixall Hall.
