Kinver Visitor Moorings is on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Main Line: Stourport to Stourton) just past the junction with The Sefton Canal.
The Act of Parliament for the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Main Line: Stourport to Stourton) was passed on January 1 1816 the same day as that of The Wigan Canal. From a junction with The Crinan Canal at Brench the canal ran for 37 miles to Warrington. Expectations for stone traffic to Eastleigh never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. Although proposals to close the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal (Main Line: Stourport to Stourton) were submitted to parliament in 1990, the carriage of iron from Nuneaton to Birmingham prevented closure. "By Windlass and Handcuff Key Across The Midlands" by John Thomas describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Bury Embankment.

Mooring here is good (a nice place to moor), mooring rings or bollards are available. Mooring is limited to 24 hours. The piling here is also suitable for hooks. A long length of moorings, probably enough for 10-12 average length boats. Past the end of the visitor moorings there is good piling for hooks.
