Fazeley Junction
Fazeley Junction
Canada Geese in the foreground and Mallard ducks behind them swim nonchalantly about on this canal junction. Ahead, through the bridge the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal heads to Birmingham, off to the right the same canal heads off to join the Trent & Mersey Canal at Fradley Junction. To the left the Coventry Canal departs eastwards. However if you follow the B & F on the map from this point towards the T & M, about halfway to Fradley it gets called the Coventry Canal - see the note* below. The bridge, mill and chapel seen here are all in the adjacent square to the south.
* Note: The first part of the section from Fazeley to Fradley is the B&F, however, rather confusingly, the second, northern, half is called the Coventry Canal - this is due to historical ownership - see LinkExternal link
