Helen, Mike is correct, the stream follows the Canley side of the railway line (which often floods during the winter months and extreme wet periods), passes the rear of Canley Fire Station before eventually feeding into the Canley Brook not far from the Milk Bar.
There is another stream that flows at the rear of the current Canley Police Station, under Canley Road between the houses and what was C&E Motors, into the same stream. That one seems to flow from the north, under the former Standard Triumph works, but where the source from there is unclear. It could be the source is around the works area.
There is another stream that feeds into Canley Brook, which seems to flow between Beechwood Gardens, Westwood Gardens and Canley Gardens, through the Hearsall Golf Course down to Canley Brook and Canley Ford.
It was quite a web of tributaries that flowed into Canley Brook.
As a youngster, that was my favourite "brook jumping" place. Went home many a time wet through !!
