We pulled manhole up under some bushes and disappeared. The top of the system where we had entered finally linked up to Blood Red after a mile or so, massive thanks given to Pace & Droid because I wouldn’t have known the watercourses route without them.
After walking as far as we turned around and sat in one of the many chambers with a brick staircase and wooden slated rooftop. The cameras came out and we took pictures on our return journey to Sui’s motor, going through RCP coated with a layered resin, RBP, egg shaped brick pipe, concrete & brickwork chambers up to the grated infall.
We had our own ideas to name the top of this culvert, some of these being; Roots Manuva, Silt Makes You Sick, ha!

beautiful pics
my plumber friend says that's fat in the pipes
Very good shots you get down there with little light. Is this stuff you do strictly legal – no, don't answer that.
could you tell me where these drains are in Widnes please?
I'm afraid I can't. Put the hard work in like we did and you'll find them soon enough!
ok mate its just that i live in Widnes and wondering where they was…..not even a slight clue 😉
Tell you what I'll show you how I found them. You'll need a set of Manhole lifting keys because you can't just walk into the drain.
