The Daw End Branch Canal is a branch off the Wyrley and Essington Canal, this canal links the Wyrley and Essington at Brownhills to the Rushall Canal. The Daw End Canal is just over 5 miles and although it runs through the heart of Aldridge's industrial areas it also has a rural countryside setting.
