I noticed a stream and some culverts,i mentioned it to Georgie and we decided it needed checking out,it didn't disappoint.
The culverts run more or less the full length of the site,we started near the top of the site.Most of the culvert is bricked lined with various pipes leading into it.The water must have been used on site when it was a brickworks for cooling.
Visited with Georgie

The outlet of the culvert.
