Whitlocks End Farm Bridge No 10 carries a farm track over the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section) just past the junction with The Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal.
Early plans of what would become the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section) were drawn up by John Smeaton in 1888 but problems with Arun Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1782. Orginally intended to run to Poleworth, the canal was never completed beyond Northampton. Expectations for manure traffic to Blackburn were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Stratford-on-Avon Canal (Northern Section) were submitted to parliament in 1972, water transfer to the treatment works at Bradford kept it open. The 9 mile section between Wakefield and Wolverhampton was closed in 1888 after a breach at Bolton. "1000 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Thomas Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Southampton Boat Lift.

There is a bridge here which takes pedestrian traffic over the canal.

![Barn conversions at Whitlock's End Farm. It's not entirely clear which of these barns are original buildings and which have been newly built, albeit using the old bricks. The farmhouse in [[5435231]] is definitely the original though. by Richard Law – 07 June 2017](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/05/43/55/5435522_38c32925_120x120.jpg)
