Report - Grim Resistor, Bolton - 2014.

Ah ok, cheers ojay. That manhole looks a wee bit small for some strapping blokes from manchester (?) to fit through, lol

Calling me fat like?!

Not at all, I've put on plenty of timber, must be all them pasties from carrs in bolton

The Pied Piper led away children with his musical pipe into the underground...Ojay led his adults away with his magical fresh detector into a fetid pit of underground shite

What a sewer-spewer, l hope the tripod feet got a good scrubbing!

I still can't work this one out, as it is listed by the EA or UU as a discharge point into the nearby river croal!

 

[TheVicar]

I've just had a look at ConcreteJungle's report from this drain as I was with him on this explore and recall that there is a surprisingly tiny overflow to the Croal.
If you look at the last photo you will see a little 300mm pipe which must struggle a bit after it's been raining for hours!

 

[pastybarm]

Yes, that would fit with what is on google about the croal and overflow points. Thanks for the link.

Managed to get a glimpse t'other day of what (I think!) might actually be the outfall/overflow of this filthy beast. Toilet paper and grey water in yer river croal!
