Edgbaston Tunnel, Birmingham
This is approaching the eastern portal of the tunnel, which is 105 yards in length (96 metres). This is the only one of five tunnels on the summit level of the canal to be provided with a towpath.
The northern parts of the Worcester and Birmingham Canal were built in the early and mid 1790s, but finishing the thirty mile route to the River Severn at Worcester took twenty-three years. Industrial goods and coal were carried down to Worcester, and often on to Bristol. Grain, timber and agricultural produce were carried back to the growing towns in the Midlands.

Worcester & Birmingham Canal: Edgbaston Tunnel (2)
This is the north-eastern portal of the approximate 105 yard, or approximate 96 metre, long canal tunnel. The newer railway tunnel to the right originally formed part of the infrastructure of the Midland Railway's Birmingham & West Suburban Branch, and was the site of the former and comparatively short-lived (1876-1925) Church Road station, which was closed due to lack of patronage.
