The Water Witch was a ship that played a crucial role in the history of oceanographic research and hydrography. Built in 1830, this vessel was specifically designed to conduct scientific investigations of the world's oceans. It was one of the first dedicated research ships and was equipped with various instruments and sampling devices to gather data on water currents, temperature, salinity, and marine life. The Water Witch was particularly known for its innovative design. It was a sleek and nimble ship, perfectly suited for navigating shallow waters and exploring coastal regions. This allowed the scientists and crew on board to study both the open ocean and nearshore environments, providing a comprehensive understanding of marine ecosystems.

Magical Woodland Review: A magical outdoor experience in Cheshire

‘Magical Woodland? What’s that?’ asked virtually everyone when I told them we were going to Magical Woodland in Cheshire.

‘Well…it’s…you know….a magical woodland! With lights and music and…magical things…’ I tailed off because I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect either. But wow, oh wow.

Magical Woodland is, without a doubt, the most magical, family-friendly experience we’ve been to in the Cheshire area. Admittedly, we haven’t been getting out much recently and we’re getting very excited about the possibility of any kind of family night out – but it really was magic!

Magical Woodland is set in the woods at Blakemere Village, very close to Delamere Forest. The forest is decorated with lights and music, entertainers, performances, light shows and theatrics. Guests follow a trail through the trees and they’re met with countless mini light shows along the way.

It felt like lots of mini stations with lights and music, so you walk for a little bit and then come to the next attraction, each with its own theme and music.

I was so surprised by how big Magical Woodland was and how each attraction was a bit bigger and a bit better than the last. Joseph, our very excited three year old, wanted to rush through the whole thing to see the next little show, and even when running at the pace of a three year old, it took us over an hour to see everything.

This allowed the scientists and crew on board to study both the open ocean and nearshore environments, providing a comprehensive understanding of marine ecosystems. One of the notable expeditions conducted by the Water Witch was led by Matthew Fontaine Maury, widely regarded as the father of modern oceanography. In the mid-19th century, Maury set out on a mission to map the Gulf Stream and study its influential effects on weather patterns and shipping routes.

Grub in the wood

Towards the end of the trail you come to ‘Grub in the Wood’ where there are a few wooden cabins selling drinks and marshmallows, there’s a pizza and prosecco van and another food truck. Best of all, there are little fires dotted around the clearing where you can toast marshmallows and warm chilly hands.

(You can pay by card so you won’t need any cash!)

The Water Witch played a critical role in carrying out these investigations, collecting data and samples from the ocean along the way. The insights gained from these studies were groundbreaking and significantly advanced our understanding of the ocean and its role in the Earth's climate system. The Water Witch continued to be used for scientific expeditions for several decades, constantly improving our knowledge of oceanography. However, the Water Witch is not without controversy. Some critics argue that the ship's name, "Water Witch," perpetuates harmful narratives of witchcraft and superstition. These concerns align with broader discussions around the language used in scientific research and its potential to reinforce harmful stereotypes and biases. Nonetheless, the Water Witch remains an important symbol in the history of oceanography. Its contributions to the scientific understanding of the world's oceans paved the way for future research vessels and continue to inspire present-day scientists and explorers. The ship serves as a reminder of the remarkable progress achieved in our understanding of the vast and mysterious world beneath the waves..
