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.

Noice. Railway tunnels are great but I personally wouldnt worry too much about raves.
 
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.
 
did you have a look for the top of the vent shaft topside
Yes, although it turned into a bit of countryside ramble, which included meeting native inhabitants such as deers, horses and angry farmers :lol:.
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.
