You join us back up on NE Yorkshire this week in the search for not only Kettleness and Sandsend Tunnels, but also to try and work out where the six original tunnels were located. We love a little mystery like this.
To even attempt to build some of the original tunnels on this stunning but incredible dangerous landscape is a tiny bit mad. The Kettleness and Sandsend Tunnels are still in existence today and full of hidden secrets.

My first real love of the Landscape and the human geography that has shaped it came in the form of a railway, two railways that ran side by side for a few miles. I often wondered why there was two. From that point forward everything about the railways, the canals, the roads and routes fascinated me. This is the story of a race that at least two companies took part in.

Welcome to this weeks adventure were we try and take a close look at Sapperton Canal Tunnel on the Thames and Severn Canal. Spanning the final gap in the Cotswold's at over 2 miles long it remains today as a testament to those that took on this incredible challenge.
WARNING: This tunnel is unsafe. From this northern portal you can only reach the second collapse. The air quality immediately after the first is unknown. The southern end again, whilst there are no collapses, the air quality could well be poor. Stay safe!!

Welcome to The Somersetshire Coal Canal. More specifically welcome to Combe Hay and the incredible architecture the canals gave us. This area really holds a thousand secrets from the canal era, over two dozen abandoned locks, an inclined plane, and quite possible the most bizarre and terrifying canal invention you have ever heard of.
