Worcester and Birmingham Canal in Worcester

Image: © Roger D Kidd Taken: 21 Aug 2010

Just north of Rainbow Hill, this is the Worcester and Birmingham Canal at Gregory's Mill Top Lock (No 6). Two hundred metres away is Astwood Cemetery Bridge (No 14), a former accommodation bridge. Housing estates are now on both sides of the canal and this bridge is not open to traffic. Note: the ground paddles are up, so the lock is filling. There is a boat in the lock, behind the camera.
