Description:Forster Bridge near Fordhouses, Wolverhampton Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. Forster Bridge is No 68. The narrows are cut into the sandstone rock, and for a quarter of a mile or so narrowboats cannot pass each other. There are two wider spots in the narrows where one (maybe two) boat(s) can pass another coming the other way. The latest Nicholson Guide mentions that locally the stretch is called 'Pendeford Rockin, after a local farm.
