A view west from the roadbridge on the A449, looking down the "Wolverhampton 21" flight of locks on the western end of the Main Line of the Birmingham Canal Navigations (BCN). The locks drop down to Aldersley Junction at which point they join the Staffordshire and Worcestershire canal.The viaduct carries the ex-GWR main line to Shrewsbury, and you can just see the signal box for Oxley carriage sidings on the right.
