    Arrow Vauxhall Treatment Plant Drain Ellesmere Port April-11

    Ive been meaning to post this for a while,anyway,here goes.
    The Vauxhall Effluent Trade Treatment Plant is situated behind the Vauxhall plant in Ellesmere Port it treats the liquid waste from the car plant before discharging the treated water in to the Manchester Ship Canal.
    Visited with Georgie.

    It leaves the treatment plant at this point.

    It passes through this gated area into the Drain.







    It leads to a large pit which then splits into 2 outlets









    Eventually exiting here next to the ship canal.

    On the edge of the canal there are loads of stepping stones under the surface so we decided to see how far out we could get without falling in.

    Nice work. Tunnel shots are cool.
    Isn't this where people who bought Vauxhalls are sent to be treated for their mistakes?

    The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.

    lol thought id replied to this originally yehh it wasnt bad this place but i posted mine in a efforts report along with a few other things

    http://www.urbexforums.co.uk/showthr...rts-April-2011


    this place was so dangerous though that dangerous we had to do it in trainers



    just look at all that water theres deffo a risk of drowning there


    as ive said before this place is wide open for the likes of kids to get into come on vauxhall sort it out before there is an accident (this part was a little deep but no risk of drowning...for adults anyway



    kev wasnt this the same day i slipped down that embankment and ended up nearly in the mersey
