Flood Brook Culvert - Runcorn - dec 2010 -
 
bit late in posting this one

its not that big of a place but i suppose anything is worth a tickle

i tried to find this place ages ago whilst out mooching with slaphead it was misty cold and dark so i gave up after about 10 mins

anyhow this place is supposed to start from halton lea and flow through beechwood between the 2 estates and goes under the m56 through 2 large sections...it does indeed

depending on whatever end you start from your greeted with a huge railway arch where the culvert flows through once you leave one of the sections.

explored with michael caine (tcci) and kevsy21

Nice one man! At the opposite end towards 'Halton Lea' it continues underground. I didn't have waders at the time to check it out but in the summer it might be worth it, it's only about 4/5ft RCP but it might lead to something bigger.

cheers m8 yehh i was wondering what would be at the opposite end in the woods at the start of beechwood is a big concrete box with a tiny hole where the water comes out of but inside it sounds much more fierce

over the road aswell we found a big raised manhole like thingy but it was locked maybe thats big in there let us know when ye bk home m8 maybe we could check shit out
