Playing Field off Clee Road
Located at the side of Clee Road. This field was once covered in black cinders and was known by local children as "The Black Oss". Football games were played there as well as a local cycle speedway team using it as their track.

Canal Junction, Parkhead
3 Parkhead Locks lead up from Parkhead Junction of the Dudley Nos 1 and 2 Canals. At the top of the locks, and just a few yards south of Dudley Tunnel, lies this extraordinary junction. 1.25 miles of Pensnett Canal headed S and SE out of the picture to the right (some isolated sections still visible), Parkhead Top Lock lies in the centre and a couple of hundred yards of Grazebrook Arm headed leftwards and terminated just past Peartree Lane, serving, among other things, a factory which cast the casings for Barnes Wallis's dam-busting bouncing bombs. The railway viaduct in the distance was to have been converted to an embankment which would have lost the relevance of all of this industrial history except for the efforts of the volunteers who became the Dudley Canal Trust http://dudleycanaltrust.org.uk/

Parkhead Top Lock near Dudley
Looking north on Dudley No 1 Canal on a persistently wet day.
Ahead is Parkhead Top Lock, No 1. The Parkhead flight of three locks provides a rise (or fall) of twenty feet (just over six metres).
The tunnel has very restrictive use, so very few boats go this way. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dudley_Tunnel Off to the left is a short remnant of what was originally the Pensnett Canal.
