Walsall Canal approaching Gospel Oak Branch Junction
Viewed from Wiggins Mill Bridge. What is left of the Gospel Oak Branch (a short section is in water) heads off to the left beyond the anglers; the towpath on that side leads only to the branch. The towpath of the main Walsall Canal continues from here on the right: it is elevated for a short distance leading to a bridge over what appears to be a derelict basin. The blue bridge ahead carries the Midland Metro tram line, built on what was once the Great Western Railway's main line between Birmingham and Wolverhampton.

Wiggins Mill Bridge - Walsall Canal
Situated just after a canal basin, this bridge allows the horses that towed narrow boats to cross to the towpath on the other side. Here, British Waterways are carrying out minor repairs to the brickwork.

Walsall Canal, Wednesbury (1)
A surprisingly verdant section considering the canal here is lined with industry.

Walsall Canal - Wiggins Mill Bridge in 1979
The south side of Wiggins Mill Bridge on the Walsall Canal in 1979. It lies just to the south of a disused railway interchange basin, (overgrown but still clearly discernible), which would be beyond the wall seen through the arch of the bridge.
The railway bridge in the distance at the left side of the image now carries the track of the Midland Metro light railway system.
