    Incredibly interesting, thank you! Live in the local area and have just seen a part of it I walk by regularly but would never see for myself. Really enjoyed that. Makes you realise there is a whole world nearby that we walk by without realising or investigating that is integral to our daily lives.

      I honestly can't remember if we researched the other end, I don't think we dis because we knew it eventually comes out in the river but we didn't estimate how deep it would get which is why we didn't go any further and got out where we did. Waders job and a big stick to test the depth for the next bit 😂

    As kids we used to explore the tunnel opposite this one, accessed from Butternab, it came out just below Beaumont Park. It’s no longer accessible as there is housing at the Butternab end and the Beaumont Park side was banked up with earth. We also found the old flue that led from the mill in Armitage Bridge mills to the Chimney in the woods at the top of Bank Foot Lane. This was back in the mid eighties before urban exploration was a thing. Films like The Goonies were our inspiration. It’s great to see people are still exploring these lost places.

    • @yorkshireboy3886
      @yorkshireboy3886 8 месяцев назад

      I've been in that flue you mentioned.. I remember dropping into a hole in the tunnel then it went up a black sooty stone lined tube to the bottom of inside of the chimney like you said. Full of 70s graffiti and beer tins!

      I've done Butternab at night without any lights, torches etc whilst heavily under the influence of fun little mushrooms back in the early 80's.... That was extremely fun. I believe there is a tunnel between Hill Top Res and Scammonden Res, that's sometimes accessible. But the best in Huddersfield I found was looking up the overflow a Scammy dam or standing towards the bottom of the dams observation tower with steps down into the water or up to the top of the tower!

    Thanks for the tour! As a kid, we used to do the same types of walk around. When you found the brick side tunnel, that was quite interesting, as that was possibly a storm drain open to a stream originally, but now the stream is covered for quite a way! Which is very similar to the culverts we used to explore as kids! The only difference tho, is ours were of the concrete tubes only, no brick or other stone work. Once in a while you could find a stream covered in the corrugated metal as you had in one portion of your trek. What perseverance! I would have turned around at that point when you had to duck walk under the concrete, but it was nice it opened back up! Today, the culverts I explored are barred up and you can't get in, and trash plugs up the bars quite often, making the water too deep to walk through any more. Kids today might not think of trying to find the source or end of a stream anymore, but we had many adventures trying 50 years ago! The sad story of the baby is one of those types of stories we hear from the past, and unfortunately, is one that happens time and again even today. But it looked like fun! It brought back many memories for me! Thanks again!

    25:08 That pipe will be a CSO (combined sewer overflow), its used to relieve the pressure on the sewer system when there is heavy rainfall. Usually CSOs are out in the open beside river banks, but there will be just as many that discharge into culverts like that one! Typically, CSOs are also meant to have some kind of penstock flap or trash screen on the front to catch all the wipes and litter but some of them are just open pipes like this one, suppose it depends on how old they are. Fascinating really , as you get to see the old Victorian style brickwork!!

    I wonder why it was put down there and what was inside the caravan before it was dumped there and 50 years worth of rubbish added on top? ⚠️🤔😲 I'd also love yo know what is above the 'crap.stack' at ground level and why people think it's a rubbish dump, it must be fairly accessible to have so much rubbish and a caravan out down there? Great video, appreciate your rummage around the yucky contents of the stack, those McDonald's toys were cute, such a shame!

      Hi there. The ventilation shaft is clearly visible above ground. It's in the back garden of the Pepperpots Scout Hut (look it up on Google Earth, you'll see it easily). My theory is that people would just drive into the yard and dump stuff down it. From the look of things it's mainly decorators and contractors.

    • @pdtech4524
      @pdtech4524 Год назад

      @@lorisarvendu Yeah I figured it was a ventilation shaft but they tend to build them quite high, like a turreted chimney and make a feature of it like a tower structure so they are inaccessible to people throwing things down there, especially when the trains were running. I just wondered why this one in particular is used to dump things and not the others?🤔😲 Appreciate your insight and the location of the shaft above ground.👍
