This wharf is called Turner Green Wharf, on map, and marked as Bradbury’s Wharf by the Ordnance Survey. On the Warwick and Birmingham Canal there are two wharves, one on each side of the Lowsonford road to the east of the canal. There is a largish basin to the north with a large flat area. To the south is a small redbrick building with a door abutting the canal. Also there are two domestic dwellings adjacent to the canal, Wharf Cottage and Bridge Cottage.
