Coventry Canal: Bedworth Hill Cutting
A vast amount of soil and rock must have been excavated in the 1780s to create this straight cutting through Bedworth Hill. Both banks have been colonized by dense impenetrable thorn scrub making it a most inhospitable place. Centenary Way, celebrating 100 years of Warwickshire County Council, follows the towpath on the right here.

The Coventry Canal, Bedworth, Warwickshire
The Act of Parliament enabling the construction of the Coventry Canal was passed in 1768, and construction as far as Atherstone by 1771 was followed by the company running out of money and the sacking of James Brindley. One of the purposes of the canal was to provide Coventry with a regular supply of cheap coal from the Bedworth coalfield, which it already did by 1769.
The towpath here is used as part of The Centenary Way, a long distance walking path covering about 100 miles in Warwickshire.

Coventry Canal looking northeast from Bridge no. 13, Coalpit Field (Bedworth Hill Bridge)
Here the course of the canal shifts from north to north east and it passes through a cutting overgrown with hawthorn and other trees. From the bridge, Coalpits Field Road leads north into the former mining town of Bedworth; to the east, the road becomes a farm track. The OS Six Inch 1888-1913 map shows a settlement here, Bedworth Hill, with two public houses, but little remains of it now. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=52.47345&lon=-1.46547&layers=6&right=OSAPI
