Narrowboats at Stourbridge
The original purpose of the Stourbridge Canal was to link collieries in the Dudley area with the glass-making factories at Stourbridge. By also linking with the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal at Stourton the canal was also able to offer an outlet for Dudley coal to the River Severn. The enterprise remained profitable until at least the 1930s, but in common with the rest of the narrow canal network suffered severe decline thereafter and was effectively abandoned by the 1960s. It was, however, restored and reopened for leisure craft in 1967. Here, at the end of the 2-mile arm into the centre of Stourbridge, there are moorings for privately owned narrowboats.
