The Birmingham Canal Navigations lie at the heart of the British canal network and have a rich heritage that spans over two centuries. It served the busiest and most concentrated industrial region of the country.
Ray Shill examines the industrial archeology of the network, looking at the structures, trade work and craft on the waterway, as well as providing detailed maps of the network's various sections. He also considers the BCN's cottage numbering system.
