The Lichfield Canal was formerly known as the Ogley Locks section of the Wyrley and Essington Canal and stretched seven miles from Ogley Junction on the (BCN), dropping through 30 locks to Huddlesford Junction on the Coventry Canal.
Most of the canal will be along the original route, but there are some new diversions due to development on the route, before it was protected.
