Report - Alum House Brook, Darwen - Aug 2016

[paulpowers]

If anyone from Darwen council gets to see these pictures you need to get a team down here to sort it out before India Mill collapses into the culvert.

I've not seen any reports from here before and after stooping for a bit I understand why.

Alum house brook is one of the tributaries which flows into the River Darwen

I'm a short fucker so when I'm stooping you know it's getting tight

I started along this bit but decided to fuck it off and head out

Nice, I like the jenga roof.

Nice PP. Feeling the need for a stoop. Turned back...going soft lad?

I'd rather not be on my knees in thigh waders

 

[FreshFingers]

Let you off then

Nice I've got loads of stuff on my 'to do' map in Darwen, I really should make more effort :/

Reet near where I grew up. As a younger lad in me twenties often went mooching around there. Not been back to "Darren", for ages, is India Mill still there? Used to make paint as I recall? In the culvert further down near Sainsburys,there is an overflow/access from said supermarket, think it's a possible sewer connection, but not sure, or for drainage.

Good effort, this has been on my list for about 6 months and was off to pop down next time home. I haven't found any previous reports either

Darwen has many secrets indeed!
