Visited with Romanian1 and Lawrence.
Just over 2 years ago I started this thread on Dark Places about a tunnel under Lymm Dam, it's believed to have last been used as an air raid shelter. However the roof is a proper arched brick type, not roughly carved out of the sandstone like the Stockport ones and not the hasty cast concrete type like over shelters. So I believe the tunnel/shelter was originally associated with the Dam, with a now long gone industrial effort or even both. More research is needed.
But I did after my third visit manage to take some photographs, here it is:
On entry there is a small room off to the right which has seating and a table carved straight out of the sandstone.
The door to this room is also a piece of stone, but that's more like Yorkshire stone.
Following the corridor brings you in to the main remaining section, through that doorway is massive chunk of concrete sealing off the tunnel.
On the right is a ladder leading up to a grid on the surface.
On the left is the way we came in, on the right is another dead end
Dead end.
The way back out...
...but not before a bit of light painting.
