Re: does anybody know
Remember seeing something like that when I was a kid, think somebody said it was a ventilation shaft for a coal mine, but it was fenced of and had a cover

Re: does anybody know
looks more like a drainage culvert entrance
looks like a reservoir in the background no idea where and could be wrong but that's my thought on it |
Re: does anybody know
I am going for something connected with the nearby waterworks/reservoir. The brickwork around the opening would likely be done when the res. was being planned.
Location not known |
Re: does anybody know
There is a road in the background. I have seen small tunnels under roads before to let foxes, badgers etc cross under the road. This looks too far away from the road though for that.

Re: does anybody know
Looks like it's there to stop the road from flooding.

Re: does anybody know
I think it's called a hole.

Re: does anybody know
To take a stream under the road? Is it the one in Huncoat between the Griffin and Hapton?

Re: does anybody know
Could be the collapsed roof from a coke oven or kiln? Looks very similar to the ones near blythes, but it's definitely a different road in the background.
