Looking towards Digbeth and Typhoo Basin. This was the Warwick and Birmingham Canal, ceremonially opened on the 19th December 1799. Bordesley Junction is where the short branch to Salford Junction (The Saltley Cut - The Birmingham and Warwick Junction Canal) went off to the north-east. The industrial buildings on the right appear disused at present.
