Light at the end of the tunnel The light is actually the headlight of the narrowboat about to emerge from 151865. The tunnel is 2493 metres long and even from a boat entering the tunnel the far end is little more than a pin-prick of light in the distance.

Fortified observatory, Wast Hills This observatory is on the edge of the playing fields and other grounds owned by Birmingham University. It seems to be heavily protected by razor wire and behind a gate with hefty ironwork, presumably to keep out the local n'ere do wells.
Tunnel waste, Wast Hills This small cluster of trees has grown around the shaft and excavations from the Worcester and Birmingham Canal Wast Hill tunnel which runs directly underneath.

The room was clean, comfortable beds and good temperature. The receptionists were very polite and helpful. The only issue was a broken threshold strip on the door to the bathroom, we put the shower mat over it so we didn't trip and reported it.

Room was clean. A little small for 3 people but we made do as 1 night. Could have done with another chair or 2 - there was just one at the desk. Parking is nearby 5-8min walk. Would be good if hotel provided clear directions for walking from the car park to the hotel.
