The following are pictures taken around Lifford Lane. The stop lock was to maintain the differing levels between the Stratford on Avon canal and the Birmingham Worcester canal. King's Norton Junction is taken from the bridge across the Birmingham Worcester canal. About one mile south of King's Norton junction is the mouth of Wast Hills tunnel on the Worcester canal.
