Stockport Air Raid Tunnels (URBEX)
These tunnels were dug in the 1940s and were used as air raid shelter for WW2.
The tunnels are dug into sandstone so thats why the rock apears red. It took us over 30mins to walk from one side to the other heres a map of the tunnels under stockport (the red ring shows the entry)  This is the enterance we had to go down (sorry about blur)  Internal pictures      http://photography-on-the.net/forum/...d.php?t=528172 <---check my DIY weather sealing on my 40d constructive c&c welcome
