Free entry - and a cafe

decent pub and good food

Bratch Locks is said to be one of the prettiest sets of canal buildings on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. It was opened in 1772 and includes the lock, a bridge, the lockkeepers cottage and a toll-house. Today the towpath offers miles of easy traffic free cycling and a safe way between Wombourne and Wolverhampton.

Bratch Locks were planned and built by James Brindley back in 1772. He constructed two bridges, a toll house and lock keeper’s cottage, all built in mellow brick, making it a favourite photogenic and artistic spot. The entire area forms one of the prettiest groups of canal buildings on any canal system anywhere.

Nice little sun trap at midday

Stop for cake. Excellent choice and great service

A decent stretch but beware of geese in spring time

Nice little food stop. Decent choice and plenty of seating.

Well worth the visit to the navigation pub or the hinksford arms

Highly recommend a bacon sarnie and a brew.

An amazing showcase of someone's skills. Worth checking out if studying art.

Super food and plenty of choice. Outdoor seating has some cover

Excellent family gravel track with lots of pubs close by and 2 excellent station cafes

definitely worthy of a cake stop. you've earned it!!

Peaky blinders !

Have a drink next to the canal

From this point onwards, the path deteriorates and becomes less enjoyable.
