Coventry Canal: Abandoned Griff Arm
The reed beds and shallow cutting beyond mark the start of the long abandoned Griff Arm of the canal. Designed by Sir Roger Newdigate and opened in 1787 the cut was about 1,200 metres or about 1,300 yards long and terminated in a basin to the south of the village of Bermuda. Local coal, bricks and granite were transported out to the main canal along the arm. Some remnants of the canal, including most of the basin, still exist as water filled ponds on either side of the A444 road.
The wide section of the canal here is a formal winding hole enabling long narrow boats to be turned through 180 degrees.

Coventry Canal north of Bedworth in Warwickshire
This is about three quarters of a mile north of Marston Junction (with the Ashby Canal).
Bridge No 18 is still called Turn Over Bridge*, but now is just an accommodation bridge with no public right of access on it or into adjacent farm land.
*A turnover bridge is one which allowed the horses to change sides on the canal without being unhitched from their boats. This used to happen here because an extra towpath on the left led onto the Griff Arm of the canal just beyond the bend ahead.
