Formerly the Warwick and Birmingham Canal. The area is smothered in industry, at Hay Mills off to the left, and Tyseley off to the right. Most canal-side factories are either derelict, demolished, or are now cut off from all previous wharfs. New units are being built, many not showing yet on maps or available satellite images of the area.
