After a morning in bed nursing a hangover and a cold I met up with Hot Potato to follow up a story that he'd been told at work about this place.
We wandered around the area for ages before finding this entrance

It looked very promising on further investigation

Twas long aswell

But upon finding a big pile of shit and toilet roll we decided it was a drain/sewer and exited out the other side.It was about 100mtrs long and turned out to be the race for a nearby mill.
We then found this

Railtrack with the sleepers there, the track was there all the way up

Shored up

Getting more mine like the further we went

Knee deep water, this is when we decided to turn back it was getting dark and the torches were starting to fade

I rekon we walked about 1 mile before turning round, it was cold but the water was flowing and not still so we must have been going slightly uphill:confused: We have heard that if you carry on you come across a workshop with machinery and stuff there, we hope its true as were gonna pay another visit with Vivo and Stewy1984 soon:thumb
