Birmingham & Fazeley Canal: Reach near Tyburn
The photograph does not tell you of the incessant roar of traffic noise from the A38 Kingsbury Road just the other side of the hedge to the left. The blue girder carries a service pipe or cables over the canal.

Working boat at Minworth Top Lock, Birmingham
Traditional working Narrowboat "Pearl Barley" has left Minworth Top Lock open for us to enter - what a gentleman!
Note: Boat owners mooring near Tyburn Bridge for the night may like to visit the nearby Tyburn House pub. There, despite what it says in the Nicholson's guide to the Waterways, they can enjoy a (very) limited selection of real ales, probably ending up with a refreshing pint of Banks's Bitter served at the same temperature as Carling Extra Cold. It's enough to drive one to Guinness! (Try ordering three pints of bitter when you arrive, and have a meal while you're waiting for them to warm up).

Minworth Top Lock near Castle Vale, Birmingham
Looking south-east towards Birmingham, the Minworth flight of three locks provides a rise (or fall) of 16ft 8in (just over five metres). Shown here is the top lock. They are quite widely spaced yet are still treated as a flight. Birmingham and Fazeley Canal.
