River Jordan Culvert - Liverpool -Jan 2010

[Kevsy21]

The River Jordan Culvert is situated in the Otterspool area of Liverpool.
From Sefton Park the stream is culverted through Otterspool Park under the woodland before joining the Mersey.
There is a collapse in the middle of the tunnel meaning its now split into 2 halfs,the pics below are of "Tunnel 2" over 2 seperate visits.
The Tunnel is very cramped and low in parts,so if you suffer Claustrophobia and Arachnophobia(spiders are big) forget it,not including the large eels,fish and rats.We ventured far into the tunnel crouching eventually having to crawl.
Enjoyed this explore vastly and cant wait for more undergroud stuff.
Visited with Georgie,The Cat Crept In and The Ripper(2nd visit).
