Good Afternoon,
As part of a University Course I am building a website and the theme i have chosen is the history of the Coventry Canal in our area, in particular the stretch which runs from Nuneaton to Hartshill.
I recently did the walk down the canal and took some photos of old/disused remains of the canal network and other interesting features along the tow paths.
I am looking for local people, perhaps ex quarry men or people with knowledge of the canal area in nuneaton to shed some light on some of the photos i took on my travels. In particular some of the structures that still remain, i would like to know what they used to be used for and also it would be great to get some old photos of the same structures when they were in use if anyone has any.
I have attached a few of the photos i have taken. If anyone has any knowledge, please email me at project_112@yahoo.co.uk to see more images and see if you can help me out.
Thanks. Hope to hear from you soon.
