Birmingham Canal Navigations approaching Tipton Junction
This is the BCN Old Main Line (Wolverhampton Level), looking north-west towards the junction with the Dudley Canal, which leads off to the left. I wonder why so very many substantial mooring rings have been installed here. Housing is in Leasowe Road.
I can just see that this guy https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6813471 is still in situ at the junction, sunbathing!

Birmingham Canal Navigations approaching Tipton Junction
This is the BCN Old Main Line (Wolverhampton Level), looking north-west towards the junction with the Dudley Canal, which leads off to the left by the chemical works. I wonder why so very many substantial mooring rings have been installed here. There is a towpath on both sides of this canal. Housing is in Vernon Avenue.
There is almost no boat movement so the water is clear and the canal bed is visible.
