Hi Ann Rode Heath is the modern name. Odd Rode is the old parish name. The place is just outside Alsager, which is on the Cheshire/Staffordshire border. There is a canal running though Rode Heath. Tina

Rode Heath is on the Trent Mersey Canal. Just east of Alsager and North of Stoke. There is a pub there called the Broughton Arms and sells Marston ale. It is right by the canal. The village is slowly turning into a commuter village Try these sites for canals http://www*rfh*dircon*co*uk/T&Mphotos*htm http://www*canals*btinternet*co*uk/ Replace * with a dot No pics of Rode though

Hi, I have come across both these names as place of birth for some of my ancestors. They are down as boatman so must be close to a river or canal? Has anyone heard of them and if so, where are they??? thanks...Anne
