Winter Hill Water Tunnel System by munki-boy

Winter Hill Water Tunnel System

From the top of Winter Hill radiate a network of stone built water conduits and wells of an indeterminate age that certainly pre-date the large scale reservoir building period of the mid 19th century. Although now disused and un-maintained by the water authority some of the system is still functional, particularly following heavy rainfall. Other sections have been isolated and remain dry apart from general damp.
