Dudley & Stourbridge canal mapping

Basically the challenge is to map all the roads and close features to the
canal between the Dudley Tunnel Canal Trust Headquarters at Blower's Green
pump house [1] and ends at the Bonded Warehouse in Stourbridge [2].
Basically everything that you can see along and adjacent to the canal that
you would see on the walk.

The route follows first the Dudley No. 1 Canal, then the Stourbridge Canal
and finally the Stoubridge Town Arm. Six miles in all. Basically it's from
the south side of Dudley, around Brierley Hill and into Stoubridge from the
west.

The route sits at the boundary of the following Mappa Mercia slices:
119/151, 128/150, 129/127, 131/133, 130/132, 143/132, 138/136, 136/137 and
176.

I'll put the above on the wiki and I'll pledge to do some of the bits on
there. Please do the same if you can cover a bit before Tuesday next week.

Cheers

Andy
