Old orchard land
South of Brownheath Road; these old trees could be plums or pears.

The Malvern Hills are just visible on the horizon, viewed from just north of Fernhill Heath
Droitwich Canal at Ladywood
The Droitwich canal was opened in 1771 and was surveyed by James Brindley. It connected Droitwich with the river Severn and its course follows the contours of the Salwarpe valley. It fell into disuse in the early 20th century and was abandoned in 1939. Today some parts are navigable but it is cut off from the Severn by the A449.
Droitwich Canal at Porter's Mill
The remains of a lock on the Droitwich canal. To see the same scene almost seven years later see: SO8660 : Lock at Porter's Mill

First lock on the Droitwich Canal
The Droitwich Canal Trust have had a big HLF grant and will hopefully soon be connecting the Birmingham & Worcester Canal to the River Severn via Vines Park, Droitwich. There is still a fair bit to be done though.
UPDATE - The Mid-Worcestershire ring was finally completed and officially opened in July 2011 and forms a 21 mile ring between Droitwich and Worcester via three canals and two rivers.
Lock 2 on Droitwich Canal.
This section is restored but there are stop planks just this side of the top lock gates. The rectangular overflow weir is nice but there's better to come.
Lock 3 on Droitwich Canal
This is the last restored lock at the northern end of the canal. there is an adjoining circular overflow weir (q.v.)
Circular overflow weir by lock 3, Droitwich Canal
Brindley was involved with this canal and this is like the circular (tumbling) weirs on the Staffs & Worcs Canal. I believe it was quite a shock when this appeared out of the undergrowth.
Lock 4, Droitwich Canal
This section is decidedly disused. There's a nasty bloom on the water. The mild winter has left the canal largely covered by green algae.
