Lost Canals Of Birmingham & The Black Country

The reconstruction of the Dudley Canal at Selly Oak has a new stretch to the junction with the Worcester and Birmingham Canal.

Lapal Tunnel along this route had many problems with closures happening for repair even at earlier times, G R Jebb had a tramway laid in the tunnel to make repairs to the tunnel, but that did not prevent the final closure. The canal from Selly Oak remained in use for a time for access to brickworks near California
