Summary edit

Description
English: Birmingham and Fazeley Canal near Birches Green, Birmingham Land to the south (right) of the canal, as far as the M6 is exclusively used for industrial units. To the north of the canal is housing at Birches Green. This canal's purpose was to provide a link between Birmingham and the south east of England, by way of the Coventry Canal and the Oxford Canal. John Smeaton was the engineer, and the canal was completed in 1789. The canal now runs from the BCN Main Line at Old Turn Junction, Birmingham to the Coventry Canal at Fazeley Junction, just outside Tamworth. The length is 15 miles (24 km), and it includes 38 locks. There is also a short branch to Digbeth, Birmingham. Information from Wiki Birmingham_and_Fazeley_Canal .
