Canal approaching Pritchatts Road Bridge, Edgbaston
The canal bridges on the way into Birmingham appear to have been considerably raised in height subsequent to the building of the railway bridge, which needed more headroom.
Pritchatts Road Bridge is No 83.

Bridges over the canal and the railway, Edgbaston, Birmingham
The canal was built in the mid 1790s. The railway was opened in 1876, requiring a higher headroom, so the canal bridge top will have been raised, and possibly its own headroom too. The bridges carry Pritchatts Road, which passes the athletics track towards the main university campus to the right of the picture.
The railway brings in lines from Redditch and Worcester, running close to the canal all the way to the city centre.
