What a Productive NYE...


Bunker Drain, Warrington.

Visited originally with OneByOne, Appo_91 and YUCK back in July but had no decent pictures.
Had a Re-Visit with Sui, Appo_91 and Ashley.

There seems to be just mile upon mile of RCP with different chambers and stairs which make it quite good for a first experience, After everyone slipping and getting wet, With Sui volleying my Camera and Headtorch it was a good laugh.


Secret Quarry, Staffordshire

Visited with Droid, Pace and Sui.

All was kept abit Hush-Hush about this place and I dont have any information on the site. For the people who have visited we all added our names to the 'Hall Of Fame' Control board! Massive thanks to Droid and Pace for the Day, Spots and Techniques...



 





Puddleduck Colliery, Staffordshire

Visited with Droid, Pace and Sui.

Opened in January 1909 to carry passengers from Creswell to Totmonslow.
In about 1983 a privately owned drift mine, known as Puddleduck Colliery commenced production from adits just inside the southern portal of the old railway tunnel. A new two foot gauge tramway was laid in the tunnel with mine tubs hauled by cable.
The colliery closed early in 1991 and the land in the vicinity of the colliery was sold and the adits were sealed.

Was pretty chilled inside with Pace trying to scare us with his knowledge about air quality.


Walton On The Hill Tunnel, Liverpool

Visited with OneByOne, Sui, Appo and AT...

With me and Sui purchasing cheap rope so that we could hoist our bags on a previous explore it came back out of the rucksack to add to massive laughs with OneByOne and steep slopes.

It started as serious explore but after 20 minutes it was constant laughing.


The first two and last are Sui's, Cheers man...

Flood Brook Culvert, Runcorn

Visited with Sui.

Found this place a few years back looking for a place to build dirt jumps but didnt really venture inside.

Info from Droid;

Flood brook runs from the Halton Lea Shopping Centre, down the hill and devides the two Beechwood estates.There is the old brick lined archway that looks as though it has been in place for many years and a corrugated concreted section which I would have been built in 1969 when most of the estate was built.

The brook runs through the two sections and opens up between the railway line and the slip road for the M56 westbound. It then disapears under the motorway. This runs for about 60 metres and reappears out at the roundabout for the motorway.

Barnes Convalescent Hospital, Cheadle

Visited with Sui and Rookie...

Barnes Hospital, also known as Barnes Convalescent Home, in Cheadle, Greater Manchester, England, is a former hospital.
A donation of £26,000 for the founding of a new convalescent hospital in Cheadle was made in 1869 by Robert Barnes. Construction of the hospital, named the Barnes Convalescent Home, started in 1871 and was completed in 1875. It was constructed of bricks, the clay for which was provided locally. During World War II the hospital was used as a convalescent home for wounded soldiers. The main use for the hospital in its later life was for geriatric care and stroke patients.
It closed in September 1999 while Manchester Healthcare Trust was undergoing a £2 million cost cut. It was also featured on Most Haunted Live in September 2005.
