JJB Stadium

This is the view across the canal. There are several small industrial sites here now, but in 1847 the area was much more industrialised. The 1st edition O.S. map shows 2 coal pits and a smithy in this small area. Also, three tram roads culminate at a wharf near the double locks.

Note the JJB stadium in the background of the picture.
