Show only OP. Staying near there this weekend and apart from laying out David Cameron if I see them, can anyone recommend a good family friendly pub for two families with kids?

From what I can see, the pubs are either too upmarket for kids, or look like I might get beaten up by a local farmer. Don't overthink it, it's just a pub lunch. What can you catch in chipping norton lakes? I am hoping someone will say Ep's and bass?

On 1st August the company agreed a variation with the contractor increasing the tunnel's length once again this time to yards. On the last day of that month a navvy's hip bone was broken after a large piece of timber sprung out and hit him as he assisted with the removal of centring from a length of completed arch.

The heading was through soon after and most of the construction work had finished by the following May only for works to be suspended again before the south portal had been erected.

The company's continuing monetary constraints affected progress along the rest of the line. It was not until September that Major General Hutchinson inspected the route for the Board of Trade and a further six months had elapsed before the first revenue earning train ventured through the tunnel.

It remained operational for just 75 years with closure claiming it on 3rd December Locating both ends of this tunnel wasn't too bad once we realised we had dropped one of the pins in the wrong place..

So off we went to the other side of the graveyard and started looking there where we quickly picked up the trackbed and located the tunnel portal.. This was the southern portal and as stated in the report very flooded, so off to the other end we headed, located that end really quick as it was just off of a public footpath, headed down the side of the portal and in we went.

This report will be quite picture heavy but seeing as it's not been posted before I thought I'd try and be quite thorough without being repetitive, I hope I've achieved that.

So we will start of with the Northern Portal. Wow that some serious calcite going on in there! Bikin Glynn said:. Fantastic report and lovely pics. The calcite formations are something else! Reckon there are sleepers under those chairs and thanks for the natural light picture taken on the curve, and great history.

Great report. Photos are amazing. That shot of the calcite in 3d is capitating. Well done again TQ. Calamity Jane said:. Doug Judy said:. Beautiful pics there nature being left to do its own thing.
