Demolition is to take place of the last complete industrial lined length of the Bradley arm of the BCN. photos of this site taken today in album "Sankeys Wharf" to be found on the yahoo group canalscape-BCN in photos section. This latest delolition is a sad blow to the industrial canalscape of the BCN. The site contains features of interest which have not been fully investigated, there is the private bridge, wharfage and wharf office still extant on this length of the Bradley canal which also hosted a railway interchange basin. Planning permission is being sought with Wolverhampton City Council to demolish the entire site including the bridge over the canal. This site is virtually the last complete industrial lined length of the Bradley arm, whilst conservation of the structures is unlikely time should be allowed for proper recording and investigation. Please make your comments heard by contacting Wolverhampton City Council, the person to contact is Nick Hogben - nick.hogben@ wolverhampton. gov.uk
