History bit
The River Sheaf is a river in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. Its source is the union of the Totley Brook and the Old Hay Brook in Totley, now a suburb of Sheffield. It flows northwards, past Dore, through the valley called Abbeydale (so named because of Beauchief Abbey, which overlooks it) and north of Heeley. It then passes into a culvert, through which it flows under the centre of Sheffield emerging from time to time until joining the River Don near Blonk Street Bridge.

My initial idea was to go in via the infall but it was busy with workman, so I walked to the outfall but it was just as busy :(

So it was time for plan C the side entrance

I headed to the side which is quite possibly the worst location for being discrete, Next to a main road with a bus stop in front and a taxi rank/carpark above it.

after getting spotted by everyone in sheffield I decided to just go for it.

Once inside I was greeted by sex brick arches and one of the best culverts I have seen :D anyway on with the pics

The spray concrete that will soon be everywhere
