Fazeley was a farming village until it was transformed in the late 18th century by cotton mills and canals.
Fazeley soon took on the aspect of a small town due to a big increase in canal traffic.
The parish lies on the flood plain of the River Tame and the village would often feel the effects when the river rose due to heavy rain or because of the sudden melting of a large fall of snow which happened in 1795.

 Birmingham & Fazeley Canal from Canal Junction
Until recently, the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal was a ‘private’ industrial world behind high walls with three long flights of locks (Farmer’s Bridge, Aston and Curdworth) coping with a steep descent from Gas Street Basin at the end of the Birmingham Canal to the Coventry Canal at Fazeley.
Fazeley, and Oxford Canal Co., which had already built a canal from Coventry as far as Banbury, agreed to complete its intended route to the Thames at Oxford.
Hemmed in by factory walls, the locks could not be duplicated and were eventually bypassed completely (1844) by the 8 mile Tame Valley Canal which connected to the Birmingham and Fazeley at the bottom of the hill at Salford Junction.

 Canal Cruising on the Coventry canal
It isn’t that the canal is unpleasant or unsafe - the canal is fine - it’s just that there are prettier more interesting canals.
That is perhaps a bit unfair, and not wholly true, because there are stretches to the north of Fazeley where the Coventry is indeed very picturesque (Hopwas and Huddlesford), spoilt only by the occasional proximity of the railway.
In fact we include this northern stretch, between Fradley Junction and Fazeley Junction, in our suggestions for short breaks.
