First venture along some of Birmingham's culvets (but alas, no drains!). This was from a while ago, as unfortunately other stuff has got in the way of going out exploring over the last few months! This particular river begins its life in Wasely Hills Country park and makes its way down towards Birmingham, through Digbeth where we climbed down, and under some of the city on its way out towards the River Tyburn.
We walked to near enough the other end then took photo's on the way back. Unfortunately we didn't have massive amount of time as we wanted to pay a visit to Longbridge Shadow Factory (a false lead and a visit from the dibble scuppered that one though!!).
Was great to finally see a bit of sub-terrainian Birmingham and deffo wet the appetite for some more!
Cool thanks for looking :-D
