Its easily walkable in the middle without stooping.
We went back with waders to do the whole thing:-
Myself & Muttley both wearing chest waders tackled the debris strewn infall and mooched into the modernised section of the culvert, this looks to have been spraycreted fairly recently...
Still lots of delicious red ochre on the floor.
After a short wander along this concrete tunnel, we could hear the voices of the outfall squad up ahead, but in our path was another huge deep pit, worse than the one we had found first time.
The surface was covered in ochery scum and the water looked proper deep, still no match for the chest waders so I ploughed on through and ended up with a scum-tidemark at around waist level on my waders, thats how you earn drain cred!
Muttley was next, the job being made more difficult by the fact that i'd stirred up the water so he couldn't see the bottom!
I assured him he'd stay dry as long as he stuck to the left and took it slowly
Muttley approaches
Disturbed scum!
All in all a good mooch, despite not expecting much from this culvert it turned out to be quite pretty and a challenge too!
Thanks for looking
