Bunker Drain, Warrington - Jan 2010

Visited with Gone, Ojay and Rookie.

Ojay and Rookie

Gone

As Gone opened the manhole cover to get back out he shouted "There's a bus!". A bus had stopped right next to the manhole and all of its passengers were staring at Gone as he emerged from this drain. Subtle!

Bunker was also the birthplace of "Wet drain free climbing".

Guardian Exchange

Hidden between the Town Hall, Chinatown and the Gay Village is the Guardian Telephone Exchange.

Built to withstand an atomic blast and keep communications from Manchester clear in the event of nuclear war, its location was clearly chosen to ensure the safety of Manchester's politicians, Chinese, and gays.
