Here the course of the canal shifts from north to north east and it passes through a cutting overgrown with hawthorn and other trees. From the bridge, Coalpits Field Road leads north into the former mining town of Bedworth; to the east, the road becomes a farm track. The OS Six Inch 1888-1913 map shows a settlement here, Bedworth Hill, with two public houses, but little remains of it now. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=52.47345&lon=-1.46547&layers=6&right=OSAPI
