The exit of the Beck Valley Storm Water Culvert
The culvert is a major construction built in the 1880s to cope with surface water from the rapid urbanisation of the east side of Nottingham. It originates with the 'Beck' which flowed from St Ann's Well roughly on the line of St Ann's Well Road, Huntingdon Street and Lower Parliament Street to join the original River Leen a short distance east of the present London Road. To cope with the estimated maximum flow, based even then on a maximum recorded 1.4 inches (3.5 cm) in a 30 minute period, the culvert is 6 ft (1.8 m) diameter in its upper reaches, increasing to an oval cross section of 13ft 6 in x 9 ft 8 in (4.1 x 2.95 m).
Note the commemorative foundation stone facing out into the river, where it would be virtually unread. In practice this is double sided, with the same inscription on the inland face, seen here http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7041196
