Poisoned Dwarf - Jan 2012

[PaulPowers]

The infall for this culvert is fenced off and has a big grill over it so it was over to the outfall to see if we could get in

the brickwork inside has a rough rock base with a brick arch built on top, it starts about 4 foot in height then shrinks down to three foot.

As it flows into Poise brook it shall be known as Poisoned Dwarf

On with the pics

If anyone from Stockport council reads this the brickwork in places is falling in

Lighting with the laser

And the outfall

Thanks for looking at the culvert that almost broke my back ​

Cool find as always Paul, I do like the brickwork albeit knackered in places!

It was a bit different to see the brick sat on top of what looked like drystone walling, I think the victorians just got lazy when the culverted it and just built up on the old banks of the stream.

Stockport council have emailed me about previous reports so they might see this

To complain anout the stupidity or thanks for surveying it for them. Not sure I'd feel happy about going along one but nice report though the tunnle roof does look like it need a bit of repair in places.

It was about Tin Brook, it turned out really well as the workers above had started work inside but didn't inform the council that they had damaged the culvert.

The last email was saying the **** had hit the fan and thanking me for bringing it to the councils attention

I hope you've had your injections!
Nice pictures, Paul
