[Initially, thought to be Moonwalker, but I am told that this is actually "Mistaken Identity" Anyone care to clarify? How Ironic!]
Speeding down the motorway, towards Birmingham, it's me and The Winch, Tonight is a big night. Both of us are prolific underground explorers, with a love for all things wet, wild and...brick or concrete. However, neither of us have ever "done" a culvert... There's a first for everything!
We arrive and swiftly descend into the Culvert after a brief battle with a spikey bush...
The outfall, where we entered
Proceeding, we were both pleasantly surprised by what we were seeing. Not really much more to say... Just pictures
The culvert meets a CSO sewer in an interceptor junction.
Some nice brickwork sections in the tunnel
Just a pretty split, possibly Baptiser on the left, we didn't venture down because it was a proper wader breacher!
The Winch and I in a nice split
In a small open air section, the culvert is taken over by foliage...
That concludes the Moonwalker (or mistaken identity??) Culvert. [So called apparently because of the slippery surface under foot. It most certainly was; Winch nearly came horizontal more times than I care to count. I actually did slide over, going down like a sack of potatoes on one occasion. Ouch.]
