whilst in the area me and kevsy21 decided to check a few water based moochies out this one being the first.
its the outfall for the water treatment works on warrington road and has quite a fierce flow coming out of it making it almost difficult to take pictures with a tripod......ill add a little video at the end of this report at a later date, just to show the flow.
once past the flow and down the long chamber we was met by a T junction, with one side flowing really fast and the other hardly flowing at all.
heres a little about the plant.....(i think i have the right place)
"runcorn sewage treatment works serves the runcorn area and treats a mixture of domestic and trade effluent from the surrounding areas.
the industry from around the area ranges from chemical to food flavouring processors, so the incoming effluent can vary."
had a nice sweet smell to it almost like double trouble just down the road.

the slow flow...this took you round to a huge water pit at the side of the works via an open chamber, we decided just to stick exploring in here and not the live water works above us.
