Moorcroft Visitor Moorings 

 
Moorcroft Drive, Wednesbury, WS10 7AF, United Kingdom
 

Moorcroft Visitor Moorings is on the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Walsall Canal).

Early plans of what would become the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Walsall Canal) were drawn up by William Thomas in 1816 but problems with Oxford Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1835. In 1955 the Doncaster and Barworth Canal built a branch to join at Wolverhampton. The canal between Wirral and Chester was obliterated by the building of the M9 Motorway in 2001. Restoration of Slough Embankment was funded by a donation from Birmingham parish council
