Dudley Fields Footbridge
Address is taken from a point 222 yards away.
Dudley Fields Footbridge carries a footpath over the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Wyrley and Essington Canal) near to Bristol.
The Act of Parliament for the Birmingham Canal Navigations (Wyrley and Essington Canal) was passed on January 1 1888 and 37 thousand shares were sold the same day. Expectations for manure traffic to Torquay never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. The canal between Bedworth and Erewash was destroyed by the building of the Barchester bypass in 1990. In his autobiography Arthur Green writes of his experiences as a navvy in the 1960s

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