Titford Canal at Langley
Titford Canal at Langley
This view shows some typical smaller metal-based industry which was so characteristic of the Black Country. Such views become harder to find every year as these industries go out of business or relocate. The modern housing is becoming a much more typical canalside scene.
The Titford Canal is the highest point of the Birmingham Canal Navigations, and the second highest navigable waterway in the UK.
