On a hot summers day what better place to go to escape the blazing sun than underground.

Located adjacent to the car park of my local pub, lies this this little gem, basically a long storm drain with large chambers situated along its length.

Its fed by 3 smaller drains that converge at the last large chamber. Didn't enter too far into the 3 smaller drains but they are doable.


1. Drain discharges into stream

Good pictures, looks kinda creepy and whats with the gremlin? lol was that already hanging there?

Poor little fella had been washed up onto the platform in the chamber, when I climbed up and saw him I nearly fell off the ladder.
For scaring the crap out of me we strung him up as punishment!
