Delph Bottom Lock No 8 is one of some locks on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Dudley Canal No 1 - Through Route) and is one of the deepest locks on the waterway.
The Act of Parliament for the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Dudley Canal No 1 - Through Route) was passed on 17 September 1782 after extensive lobbying by Thomas Telford. In Henry Edwards's "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" he describes his experiences passing through Tendring Cutting during the Poll Tax riots.

Mooring here is impossible (it may be physically impossible, forbidden, or allowed only for specific short-term purposes).
Facilities: rubbish disposal.
