drain, underground.
Two of Surrey's many underground sites...
Coulsdon Air Raid Shelter
These shelters were built to protect local residents during World War II. There are rumours that it was linked to the nearby Cane Hill asylum, but they're not true. In later years it was used to store pieces of car engines and the like. Odd. It's now sealed up again.
River Wandle
My first attempt at some sort of drains. The River Wandle has been redirected under the streets of Chertsey using a big concrete tunnel.
I found it surprisingly difficult to take photos in these conditions. Nowhere to put bags down or whatever made things really hard - something that's often taken for granted!
