Foulridge takes you on a slight diversion, all marked, very quiet bit of road.
Cafe on the canal at Foulridge is good BUT expensive (for two wheeled tramps and stingy buggers like me who don't like being ripped off :mrgreen:)
I would guess that when you get past Top Lock on the LeedsLiv canal you can scoot down the Bridgewater ? canal to Leigh
