Waring's Green Wharf is on the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section).
Early plans of what would become the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section) were drawn up by John Smeaton in 1888 but problems with Arun Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Orginally intended to run to Poleworth, the canal was never completed beyond Northampton. Expectations for manure traffic to Blackburn were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Bradford kept it open. The 9 mile section between Wakefield and Wolverhampton was closed in 1888 after a breach at Bolton. "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Thomas Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Southampton Boat Lift.

![Blue Bell Cider House (1), Warings Green Road, Hockley Heath near Solihull. At one time cider houses, which traditionally sold only cider, were quite common. Today only a small handful remain. This public house originated as a traditional cider house but today it sells beer and other drinks, but still offers a range of ciders. These include ciders from Bulmers, Thatchers, Black Rat (from a Somerset family cider farmhouse) and a weekly guest cider. The pub also provides excellent food at very reasonable prices and has a beer garden fronting the Stratford-upon-Avon Canal. It's no surprise therefore that this is a busy and popular venue.[[3239948]].[[3239966]]. by P L Chadwick – 24 November 2012](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/23/99/3239935_2756f382_120x120.jpg)

![Blue Bell Cider House (3), Warings Green Road, Hockley Heath near Solihull. A popular canalside public house. Originally a traditional cider house selling only cider, it now sells beer and other drinks.See also:- [[3239935]], and [[3239948]]. by P L Chadwick – 24 November 2012](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/23/99/3239966_50dfe5e7_120x120.jpg)
![Blue Bell Cider House (2) - sign, Warings Green Road, Hockley Heath near Solihull. More of a red bell than a blue one, but this old public house continues to sell a good range of ciders as well as other drinks.The name of the Bell is quite a popular one and reflected the close association that the church had with inns and taverns in the past and particularly in medieval times. Many religious establishments brewed church ales which were sold to increase income. The sound of the church bell was heard far and wide, particularly in the days before the noise of motor traffic etc. Frequently there would be a pub located fairly near to the church, as in the case with this pub. This is not a medieval pub but it remained a popular name up to Victorian times, as a symbol that was easily recognised at a time when many people were unable to read and write.[[3239935]].[[3239966]]. by P L Chadwick – 24 November 2012](https://s0.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/03/23/99/3239948_0c95faf5_120x120.jpg)
