Huddlesford Junction

Huddlesford Junction

Huddlesford Junction (gbmapping|SK150095) is the original north-eastern limit of the Wyrley and Essington Canal where it met the Coventry Canal, near Lichfield, in Staffordshire, England.

The Wyrley and Essington Canal became disused east of Ogley Junction and was abandoned in 1954. Subsequently this stretch has been named the Lichfield Canal and is under restoration.
