Although only 1 and 1/2 miles long the canal is certainly not lacking for features. It has 2 tunnels, the Ashted and Curzon Street tunnels - the latter carries several of the approach railway lines into Birmingham New Street over the canal.
There are also a number of locks and bridges, plus a wharf and a basin! Its not the most scenic of canal walks it has to be said.
