View of the now redundant Canal Wharf and Basin seen in
1967, the last year of Hockley's working life. There is little evidence now of
the extensive operations which were once an every day occurrence at Hockley in
transferring goods to other parts of Birmingham via the extensive network of
canals. Frank Popplewell states that whilst there were other canal and railway
interchange basins on the Great Western system in Birmingham, none were as
important as Hockley.
