West of Huddersfield Road, the canal is overlooked by the twin towers of the former Sugden's flour mill. The site could be redeveloped with new shops and a swimming pool.

Looking back to Briggate Bridge, the navigation quickly leaves the town centre of Brighouse behind.

Half a mile west of Brighouse is Ganny Lock. The valley opens out a little and becomes more rural.

The navigation, following closely along the valley side, valley takes a sharp turn at Brookfoot.

After a sharp left bend, the navigation turns right into Brookfoot Lock. Ahead is a disused lock leading back into the river.

Alongside Brookfoot Lock is this disused flood lock leading out into the river. This was the course of the navigation during an earlier phase before the Brighouse Cut was extended up the valley.
