Yes it wiil! i use to go up the tower when i was younger the first steps are gone up to about head level but thair was a old fence to climb up to get up, i think its boarded up now tho the tower . We will see when you get thair though👍
Nice canals bud , can imagine the chances glass works was interesting to work for . Avery is another cool place I've seen quiet alot of scales and weighbridges for this company
That person was blowing a trumpet not playing it. Not many of us in major UK cities are far from a canal, I love my local one. Another good video Drew.
I worked in Cornwall road smethwick😎…..and lived in Smethwick from birth till I was 15….nice to see this vid as I used the canal to go to school up at the baggies ground…Sandwell sec mod…
I spent a lot of my lockdown cycling that bit of the canal. Great to see it again, need to go back soon. When I was an apprentice in the print trade we did work for Avery and GKN which was a massive concern around Smethwick at the time. My Brooks bike saddle are made in Downing St so when you film the next bit make sure you pop over and film the sign 😂
I'll check out down there and mention that for you . I'm doing smethwick to Birmingham soon not sure if wanna join but he a nice bike ride . Need to get my new bike tires on as have had a few puncture

I love seeing all the old factory photos that go back in time . Be cool to really see what the canal was like back then
I'm from Smethwick and love the canals. My Grandad worked at Chance Glass for a while, and my uncle worked at Averys in the 70s

Too much filming of you rather than the landscape.
I'm improving videos tbh it's a bit of a learning curve but thanks for the feedback
