Canal Offices and Tollhouse at  Aldersley Junction
Canal Offices and Tollhouse at Aldersley Junction
A three storey brick building once stood at the junction of the Birmingham Canal with the Staffs & Worcs Canal and was at the bottom of the twenty one lock flight from Wolverhampton. This used to be a stopover point for the barge families: the children would spend a couple of weeks in the local school by the Lower Green in Tettenhall.

An old orchard with heritage species has been restored behind the building.
