Return to Kettleness Railway Tunnel
After a years break I made a return to the Kettleness Tunnel to get a few more photos, the condition of the tunnel hasnt changed noticeably.
We ventured into the escape tunnel about halfway along for the first time, after a short distance daylight becomes visible at the end.
Theres an interesting variety of coloured minerals leaching through the brickwork in places.

Walked through the tunnel today, unfortunatley didn’t have a decent torch so it was pretty dark. My son panicked the whole way through, whilst his younger sister thought it was great. We stumbled across the remnants of a laptop computer about 2/3rd’s of the way through. will visit again armed with torches.

The side tunnel does come out on the cliff, but you are no lower down than you are at either end of the tunnel.
So not sure what good that would do you on a surfboard !

What on earth was someone doing with a laptop in the tunnel? Catching up with their emails?
