Preston Brook Wharf 
Ex Claymoore Holidays base
Heatherfield, The Wharf, Preston Brook WA4 4BA, United Kingdom
Preston Brook Wharf is on the Bridgewater Canal (Preston Brook Branch) between Sandwell and Elmbridge.
The Act of Parliament for the Bridgewater Canal (Preston Brook Branch) was passed on 17 September 1888 despite strong opposition from Henry Yates who owned land in the area. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Aberdeenshire to Sumerlease canal at Mancester, the difficulty of building an aqueduct over the River Chester at Newbury caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Neath instead. The canal between Birmingham and Macclesfield was lost by the building of the Runton to Waveney Railway in 2001. In Peter Hunter's "By Piling Hook and Windlass Across The Wash" he describes his experiences passing through Salisbury Inclined plane during the war.
