Summary[edit]

Description

This is the Stourbridge Town Arm, a short canal that goes off the Stourbridge Canal. With links to the Dudley No. 1 Canal and Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal.

On the day I went, there was some kind of event on, with a meet up of old Morris Minor cars.

On the right is <a href="http://www.thebondedwarehousestourbridge.co.uk/" rel="noreferrer nofollow">The Bonded Warehouse</a>.

After a long and chequered history, The Bonded Warehouse is now a building serving the community for a wide range of functions and is available for hire for Wedding Receptions, Birthday Parties, Corporate Training and Evening Activity Clubs.

The 3 storey Warehouse with its unusual semi circular end, and with the earliest parts of the building dating from 1799 is situated in a lovely setting alongside the Stourbridge Town Arm Canal where a number of narrowboats are permanently moored. Hirers please note there is no wheelchair access to the upper floors. Also the road is cobbled and therefore uneven, making access troublesome for wheel chair users and people with walking difficulties.


Grade II listed.
