Not to be confused with Clifton Rocks Railway!
Down below the Clifton Suspension Bridge in the Avon Gorge lies a old disused railway tunnel. Around 1940 Bristol City Council had it converted into a bombproof store for the city records.
Access was tricky and stupidly i forgot my wellies so i got very wet. Once i was inside there was a corridor running down the left with rooms off to the right. Each room had a upstairs that you could access by a metal ladder. At the end of the corridor was a safe door built in to the wall.
It looks like its been left well alone since they moved out but the water damage has taken its toll on the wood.
