Lichfield Basin, Stourport on Severn

This was part of the inland port at one end of the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal. This basin was opened in 1806, filled in during 1950 and partly re-opened in 2007 and surrounded by modern apartment buildings. Although there are moorings in here I don't think I've ever seen a vessel in this basin.
