I did not get time for a proper explore this weekend so, instead, I thought I would share some photos from a recent visit to the Tyne Pedestrian Tunnel.

Not strictly abandoned but I had somehow lived down the road from this for ten years without ever visiting before so I thought I would take a look. The Pedestrian Tunnel is much more preserved and Victorian than I had imagined and I ended up staying down there for about an hour an a half - much to the bemusement of the occasional passer by, im sure.

Apologies, I was still getting to grips with HDR when I did this. Your eyes should recover in 3-4 days :)

There is something amazingly steampunk and generally awesome about the wooden escelators.

Here is the less cantoonified version for those purists amongst you who get all angry about HDR...
