Distance Post, Birmingham & Fazeley Canal
Distance Post, Birmingham & Fazeley Canal
At first glance this post giving distances from Tindal Bridge close to the start of the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal, appears to be an old canal artefact, but it is of course quite modern. Quoting distances in metres might be more meaningful for today's schoolchildren, but is hardly authentic.
