Located where old maps show a spring, it appears that the flow has been managed / contained, perhaps due to the proximity to a mill race at the time of construction. The mill, mill race, mineral railway and adjacent quarried area have all returned to nature, but this rather eerie water filled bunker remains hidden in the woodland.
