Engine Arm Moorings, Birmingham Canal
The Engine Arm had the primary purposes of giving access to the pumping engine at Engine Lane and acting as a feeder into the summit level at Smethwick Locks. Later it would serve the industries that grew up along it. Today it serves to provide secure mooring for cruising boats.
