GV II
Canal accommodation bridge. Circa 1812-13. English bond red brick with sandstone coping to parapets and sandstone responds to arch. Semi-elliptical arch with plat band above and pilasters at ends of parapets. Minor repairs in blue brick to parapet. NOTE: The Worcester and Birmingham Canal was authorised in 1791. With Thomas Cartwright as the engineer work began at the Birmingham end in 1795 and completed to Tardebigge in 1807. In 1809 Cartwright was replaced by John Woodhouse, who built a lift instead of the proposed flight of locks. Trials for the lift started in 1810, but it was abandoned in favour of the locks on Rennie's advice. In 1812 construction commenced on this section of the canal and the Tardebigge flight of locks (q.v.). SOURCE: Charles Hadfield, The Canals of the West Midlands, PP135- 146.
