19th Century Railway Tunnel

[Fireice]

I stumbled upon this one while getting some exercise. I hoped for something grander but it turned out to be about 100m of slightly curved tunnel with vertical ventilation shafts.

I will not disclose the location because poor security and interesting acoustics would make it a target for ravers.
Apparently it is inhabited by bats, but I haven't seen any.

Spring coming out of the wall

Stalagmite

Noice. Railway tunnels are great but I personally wouldnt worry too much about raves.

did you have a look for the top of the vent shaft topside

Was there many springs coming through the walls? The tunnel at Withcall I visited recently was gushing with water from all the springs that were coming through the walls like the one in your pic.

Yes, although it turned into a bit of countryside ramble, which included meeting native inhabitants such as deers, horses and angry farmers .
The cover of the vent got covered in a layer of soil and now there is a tree growing there.

Just one or two, there are also drips that formed the stalagmites.

Nah, generally don't cause any bother up this way or make any more mess than already there....
