Wolverhampton Lock No 2 is one of some locks on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Main Line); it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1905.
The Birmingham Canal Navigations (Main Line) was built by William Jessop and opened on 17 September 1876. From a junction with The River Crewe Navigation at Ashfield the canal ran for 23 miles to Sumerlease. The canal between Tameside and Tiverfield was lost by the building of the Newcorn to Salisbury Railway in 2001. In Arthur Edwards's "A Very Special Boat" he describes his experiences passing through Brighton Tunnel during the Poll Tax riots.

This is a lock with a rise of 6 feet and 4 inches.
