Having already got my wellies wet a little further downstream investigating something that turned out to be nothing more than a small crawl space I thought it was worth wandering a little further to check this out. It’s only short and I hadn’t really expected to be doing a report on it. However both me and @tallginge had wondered about it before having visited the climbing centre next door, and the pics came out ok so I’m posting it regardless.

This is, simply, a small culverted section of the river Sheaf running under the Centenary Works building and the road beyond. The first section is concrete, the second is a stone arch. The water is suspiciously bluey green tinted throughout and there’s a constant smell of sewerfresh, likely as a result of the recent lower water levels leaving dirty water to stagnate.

Thanks. Got a proper bad glare from a woman a bit before this when she spotted me in the river from her house. She looked actually disgusted at my behaviour! Hah!

Ha ha. Disgusting behaviour.

Nice one bud. Wasn't expecting much but ive always wanted to know whats down there. Should've shown her a full moon. That'd really give her something to tell the neighbours about. :eek:
