Mooring in Sutton Coldfield

[andy the hammer]

We have a friend coming to the boat and we want to meet them at Sutton Coldfield and was wondering about moorings.

If it is the sutton coldfield in Birmingham then the cross city rail line takes you to pretty much the high street. but i do not think any canals run that close to sutton town centre.

Moor at Cuckoo Wharf. Cross the road and some buses go direct to Sutton Coldfield.

When they rejigged the bus routs they stoped most of the Buses that go through Aston to go along the expressway. but you can walk up gravely hill to where Kingsbury road joins the route to sixways there is a stop by the crossing that the buses 904 and one or 2 of the other buses go to the town centre.

Cross City line to Aston, cross the Lichfield Road and a few yards up Holbourn Hill - the canal runs "one house back" from the main road.

I would suggest mooring by the Kingsley pub Minworth/Curdworth. The A38 Kingsbury Rd runs next to it & it's pretty close to Sutton.

Thanks for your suggestions,no need to be in town but in the general area would be great.
