After the demolition of Magnets building, we gained permission for some exploratory digs using a #JCB

The first dig on Magnets was to locate the Tunnel leading out from the #SandStoneArch chamber. Sadly, that Tunnel had been collapsed…
2 – ...Then we tried to locate the #GreatTunnel digging down with the JCB.

Whilst we didn’t find the #HolyGrail of Tunnels this time, we did find many interesting features including a very large brick structure with several arches built in…
3 – …and some Subterranean chambers too…
4 – ...When Merseyflex was demolished, we tried to find the lost Tunnels discovered by the Army during their 1882 & 1907 surveys

We found this grand Chamber where the Army said it was, proving the accuracy of their plans. We look forward to exploring this further when we can...
5 – ...Another Tunnel discovered on Mason Street quite by accident.

A small dip in the ground was found to lead into a previously unknown Tunnel. These photographs were taken by lowering a small camera down this hole into the previously unknown Tunnel
