Birmingham & Fazeley Canal, Fazeley Junction
This is a view of the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal as it leaves SK2002 : Fazeley Junction heading (eventually) northwards to meet the Trent & Mersey Canal at Fradley. However, due to a historical quirk (see LinkExternal link ) approximately halfway to Fradley it gets renamed as the Coventry Canal most of which heads eastwards from this point (see SK2002 : Coventry Canal, Fazeley). The rest of the B&F meanwhile heads southwards towards Birmingham, (see SK2001 : Birmingham & Fazeley Canal passing Tolson's Mill). This photo was taken from on top of SK2002 : First & 77th Bridge, Coventry Canal
