I suspect you meant the section of the T&M between Fradley and Great Haywood. Although the northern half of what is now known as the Coventry Canal between Fradley and Fazeley was built by the T&M company, with the southern bit being built by the BCN. The Coventry Canal Co subsequently bought back the T&M section, but the length from Whittington to Fazeley remained in BCN ownership until Nationalisation. I have a first series 1:50,000 OS map which labels the Fazeley - Whittington section as "Birmingham and Fazeley Canal", but I notice that the current version marks it all as Coventry Canal.
