Starkerley Culvert - Bolton - March 2015 - Explored with Dartian (non-member)

This has been on my to-do list since @Snake Oil and @ViralEye did it without me

A mix of old and new, running under a section of the a666 in Bolton, which includes a big chamber (around 60ft)

Another one 'ticked off the list'

Looks stoopy in parts, the shaft is sometimes used for rope access rescue scenarios

Fancy using wonky plastic though lol

the grp is quite tough, it's used all the time now as the pikey's have yoinked a good chunk of stainless over the years from NW drains

@ViralEye had a small incident with the plastic in here

You forgot to mention it took you nearly 4 hours to climb the first ladder

stooptastic! You got some good shots there, but you need more practice in more drains

No, the way we went in wasn't the stoopy end @Snake Oil

 

[Snake Oil]

lol, I thought that end would still be locked and didn't know how tiny or long the little end is I'm guessing you didn't go all the way through then?
