Approaching Garrison Bottom Lock near Saltley, Birmingham
Grand Union Canal,
The apparently derelict factory walls remain by the canal above the Garrison Bottom Lock No 63. In fact, the buildings behind them have actually been demolished, leaving open yards for newer industrial units in Adderley Road.
Looking north towards Salford Junction. The two and a half mile former Birmingham and Warwick Junction Canal, linking Bordesley Junction with Salford Junction, is sometimes referred to as the Saltley Cut. It was opened in 1844 to avoid so many locks through Birmingham. It used to be considered "the filthiest canal in the country".

This was originally the Birmingham and Warwick Junction Canal. Wikipedia describes how it was on this 2·5 mile link canal sometimes called the Saltley Cut:
... "was reviled as the filthiest place on the whole canal system, with gas works, a power station, railway works and a chemical works all generating or receiving cargoes, and discharging waste into the canal ..."

Garrison Bottom Lock
The Grand Union Canal extends a few miles north of central Birmingham to Salford Junction under the M6. This final stretch is little used - most boaters preferring the parallel Birmingham & Fazeley Canal route through Aston Locks. It is not particularly pleasant - characterised by this burnt out lock cottage, and the water is full of rubbish. It's hard to believe that this is the same canal that includes such iconic locations as Stoke Bruerne and Braunston. This is Garrison Lock no 5, or no 63 (and the last) on the Grand Union.
