SPON LANE LOCKS SPLIT BRIDGE 1829 Birmingham Canal Navigation N52o 30' 24' W1o 59' 43.9"
The Horsely Iron Works supplied this split foot bridge. It is cantilevered from the lock walls with a space in the center of the bridge where the two halves do not meet, as do not their parapets so that the tow rope can be easily passed through the resulting slot. This idyllic spot lies under the M5 motorway today.
