We moved from the 1950’s where the challenge was to keep open and refresh the waterways which were still open after the post war and post nationalisation neglect. We have to remember that canals which we now consider the backbone of the system such as the Staffordshire and Worcestershire were under serious threat in the late 1950s. Then came the first wave of re-openings with the Stourbridge and the Stratford leading the charge with some triumphant re-openings honoured by royalty.

  • Section 2 – Statement of Significance
    Section 2: Statement of Significance 63 Tame Valley Wetlands Landscape Partnership SECTION 2: Statement of Significance 2.1 Introduction This section describes what is important about the heritage of the Tame Valley Wetlands Landscape Partnership scheme area and why it is significant at a regional and national level. 2.2 Landscape The River Tame runs through the landscape, forming the spine of the rich mosaic of wetland habitats created by sand and gravel extraction. The river valley is flat and broad with gentle slopes. Formerly the rich mineral content of the valley provided a living for the valley’s inhabitants but now, empty of minerals but full of water, the extraction pits and quarries provide a rich habitat for wetland species. The rural parts of the valley around Middleton and Curdworth are mainly farmland whereas the eastern edge has some remaining common and heath. Some small areas of woodland remain but this would have been more extensive in previous centuries. The towns and villages have grown up alongside the river close to broad shallow crossing points. Kingsbury Village and the River Tame © 2013 EA 64 Tame Valley Wetlands Landscape Partnership The need to transport the minerals resulted in an ever increasing network of criss crossing transport routes across the valley, separating communities, but leaving a rich legacy of engineering heritage, and highlighting the Tame Valley’s involvement with key moments in history like the industrial revolution. It is man’s usage of the resources within the Tame Valley that have shaped the landscape that we see today. ...Noisier yet than ever Heaven meant Beset by the traffic’s constant roar Thou’rt now a green island trapped, triangled, Strangled, within the noisy nexus of the nation’s motorways..
