Summary edit

Description
English: Marsh Lane Bridge (1) , Wolverhampton Marsh Lane Bridge is at the southern end of a narrow part of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. The bridge is also deceptively low on the non-towpath side of the bridge hole. Boat tillermen should always steer near to the towpath when negotiating the bridge. This one is a bit close to the left, but it is from the other direction that mistakes are more often made!  :-) The narrows are cut into the sandstone rock, and for half a mile or so narrowboats cannot pass each other. There are two wider spots in the narrows where one (maybe two) boat(s) can pass another coming the other way. The latest Nicholson Guide mentions that locally the stretch is called "Pendeford Rockin'", after a local farm.
