Autumn in Marsh Lane Narrows, Wolverhampton
Looking north-north-east towards Penkridge, this is the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal at the northern end of Marsh Lane Narrows, in which narrowboats cannot pass each other except at two small tight passing places.
This was a very dull damp day, which seemed to emphasise the autumn colours.

Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal at Fordhouses, Wolverhampton
Here at Marsh Lane Narrows, the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal, carved as a cutting into the sandstone bedrock, is much less than the width of two boats. Overhanging trees contribute to making the route very shady and damp. Navigators cannot see whether a boat is approaching from the other direction, but there are two small passing places.

Marsh Lane Narrows, near Wolverhampton
The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal, cut directly into the sandstone bedrock, is less than the width of two boats. This is the narrowest part of the canal, about nine feet, seen from under Forster Bridge No 68. About two hundred metres forward the canal widens out again, but by the time a narrowboat travelling north reaches this bridge it can be seen so boats will wait.

The Narrows
This section of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal has been cut through solid sandstone rock. It is unusual in that it is a long section of single boat width canal with widely spaced passing bays and tends to be dark and uninviting.
