I remember that tunnel, and catching cockies in a net from Can-Row brook. Very nostalgic!

I recall dangling my hot feet in there after a rough game of tick and pass or possibly gaining on the common before heading home.

We used to have a den under that bridge on the pub side there was a long wall we had plenty of headroom for a den we had candles and matches and ciggies but not many this was in the mid
forties
