bunker - downstream branch
|
The drain continues on for a long long way, probably around 500m, then it changes to normal 2m RCP again, no features to mention for a long way. Then after around 15 mins walking from the staircase, a small junction chamber is found. The small RCP shrinks to an impassable size after only 200m. |
|
Just d/s from the chamber and the first of several small staircases is discovered. |
|
Another of Bunker's superb features is the triangle chamber. Check out the size of that RCP!!! |
|
A real dodgy diagram illustrating the layout of the chamber. |
|
The small RCP here leads to an interesting feature after about 20m.... |
|
This is an overflow for the nearby stream. Bunker prevents the surrounding area from flooding by handling the flood water. |
|
Some of the numerous engineering scribble, showing the date this section was constructed. |
|
Another long walk and the final massive chamber is found. From outside, this chamber resembles a WW2 bunker, hence the drain's name. |
|
Looking back up the drain. |
|
One of the gangways inside the mysterious bunker. |
|
And here it is from the outside. Quite an impressive construction, just to conceal the outlet of a drain????? |
