Triangular Crane, Bumble Hole Boat Yard, Dudley - Dudley

Unusual C19 triangular boat crane which collapsed in 2002 and was cut up in pieces. Following a joint initiative between Historic England and the Canal and River Trust, the pieces were transported to secure storage at Icknield Street Yard of Canal and River Trust. Historic England funded a report on the condition and repair of the monument in 1997 and later in 2018 a specification for its repair. A new location to store the pieces is needed.
