Forgot that we hadn't reported this one!! It was Gambino who clocked the access to this place while he was doing some work over there. So one night, we ventured back to get some pics!

These sandstone tunnels were made to protect the people of Stockport during the Second World War. They go on for miles and are some of the largest underground shelters in the UK!

These are nice shots mate, nicely lit too. It is a great place and cool to wander around. Did you do Dodge Hill shelter and the Tivot tunnel, pretty nearby? :thumb
