At just under 5ft this unassuming RCP pokes out from underneath a low bridge/footpath.
Again it was one of those recces I had just never bothered to take a closer look at until now..
The River Irk flows through this culverted section stretching from the outfall which snakes underground for approx half a mile before reaching a grilled infall.
Along the way several manholes, a catchment pit an interesting junction with stairs, another junction upstream with a 2ft connecting surface drain and a long section of CMP before reaching the infall.
But before you get to see all that stuff it's a long slog through a stoopy, repetitive concrete pipe!
Outfall
Barely a 5ft RCP which connects the various features before leading to the infall.
Mid Junction - Here a lesser stream joins the river.
Upper Junction - Here a 2ft connecting drain, with an adjoining section of CMP.
CMP - This was around 200 yards long before reaching the infall
Infall
