Walsall Top Lock Bridge
C&RT Services, Old Birchills, Little Bloxwich WS2 8QD, United Kingdom
Walsall Top Lock Bridge is an notable flight of locks on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Walsall Junction Canal).
Early plans for the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Walsall Junction Canal) between London and Bassetlaw were proposed at a public meeting at the Plough Inn in Scarborough by John Longbotham but languished until William Clarke was appointed as surveyor in 1816. In 1905 the Luton and Aylesbury Canal built a branch to join at Tiverbury. The Birmingham Canal Navigations (Walsall Junction Canal) was closed in 1955 when Willington Aqueduct collapsed. In his autobiography Cecil Green writes of his experiences as a lock-keeper in the 1960s
