Summary edit

Description
English: Approaching Autherley Junction, near Wolverhampton. Narrowboats are for hire at the "marina" on the right. When not in use they are often moored four abreast on the left. 1342585 By the bridge in the distance, a narrowboat is in the stop-lock. This lock lowers the water by about six inches (15cm) and was insisted on by the older Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal Company (beyond the bridge) to prevent the later Shropshire Union Canal (Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canal as it was then) "stealing" the former's water.
