Canal and recycling plant near Tyseley, Birmingham
Grand Union Canal.
Dominating the view is the Birmingham Energy Recycling Facility, operated by Veolia Environmental Services. Veolia's Energy Recovery Facility (ERF), converts 350,000 tonnes of Birmingham’s rubbish into electricity each year.
The former Warwick and Birmingham Canal was opened for business in 1800 (though ceremoniously declared open the previous year). It was bought by the Regent's Canal Company in 1929, then absorbed into the Grand Union Canal Company (GUCC) in 1932.

Behind the tree cover, a new factory unit is rapidly going up; it's little more than the steel frame at the moment, but will soon be clad and operational.

Bridge 88A
Almost an accommodation bridge, in that this doesn't appear to carry a classified public road, but connects industrial works on the NW side of the canal with the road network to the SE.

Grand Union Canal winding hole at Tyseley
Winding holes are turning points on the canal network. This one sports a fishing platform complete with, rather strangely, a dining chair.
