Brinksway Air Raid Shelter, Stockport

[Wishmaster]

Was amazed with this place, like a step back in time and quite mind blowing to imagine having to bed down in there.

Tunnels go for quite a distance and it could be easy to get lost if you dont know your way around:

Love the colours in the tunnels. excellent. What are those large pipes on the right hand side in pic 3? At first I thought it was primitive toilets, with no partitions separating them. Till I saw the other large pipe further down into the tunnel, those hadn't been damaged. any ideas what they were used for? (the pipes i mean lol).

Not seen pics of these air raid shelters before.

Cheers,

Sal

Those are toilets mate, there used to be partitions, but they are long gone now

These tunnels are immense and to be frank, proceed with caution, very easy to get lost and the ait does get thin in part

These are very near to me,

I've been to the officially opened ones on Chestergate which look very similar.

I knew there were some other shelters in Stockport but heard they had been bricked up.

Good explore

Cracking photo's. Looks like a good explore.

Neosea it is indeed a good explore. For example, I found my-self walking around every corner of it and saying to my-self "there is a shot", "there is a shot" etc...
