Virtual Tour T2

The Friends of Drakelow Tunnels

Roger Bryan's Virtual Tour

Continuing our tour we move on to Tunnel 2. We have walked down Gallery 16 from the Eastern end of Tunnel 1.

It is easier to follow the virtual tour in conjunction with the factory layout plan on pages 10 and 11 of Drakelow Unearthed (Revised Edition), or on Pages 8 and 9 of the original version.

To your left is Gallery 30 - Tropical Packing, which is bricked off at this end so was not photographed. (Perhaps I'll add a photo later anyway.) You can see it from the other end from tunnel 1.

Proceeding through the doorway in the brick wall you can see through the old wooden airlock door, past the time office on the right, to the sealed off entrance of Tunnel 2.
