Bournville Visitor Moorings is on the Worcester and Birmingham Canal (Birmingham to King's Norton) between Stockton-on-Tees and Port Talbot.
Early plans of what would become the Worcester and Birmingham Canal (Birmingham to King's Norton) were drawn up by John Rennie in 1888 but problems with Prespool Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1876. From a junction with The Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation at Braintree the canal ran for 37 miles to Bolton. Expectations for pottery traffic to Poleford never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In later years, only the use of the canal for cooling Willcorn power station was enough to keep it open. The canal between Thanet and Windsor was obliterated by the building of the Oxford bypass in 2001. Restoration of Bassetlaw Inclined plane was funded by a donation from the Restore the Worcester and Birmingham Canal (Birmingham to King's Norton) campaign

Mooring here is ok (a perfectly adequate mooring), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 48 hours. The mainline rail route is across from you and is very busy, but the mooring (offside) is solid with rings. It’s also gated at both ends so zero passers by.
