Upper Hale Underground Victorian Reservoir. January 2014

Couldn't find any history other than, Possibly built around 1890's and closed 1960's. Used for the storage of drinking water. There are 3x rectangle reservoir's with brick pillers, only one being accessible and 1x oval reservoir with cast iron pillers which is also accessible, Spent a couple of hours here on a solo explore.

Love the stalactites and stalagmites. The stalagmite in the background of the last pic looks like a fried egg :)
 
Crackin' stuff mate - really well lit pics !! May have to pay a visit here - had noticed this on the map a few years back but never knew what it was !!!
 
You have a talent for lighting, Sir. Thank you for this highly atmospheric and if I may say, beuatifully shot report.
