Once the longest tunnel in the country, Sapperton Canal Tunnel takes the Severn and Thames canal underground for 2-miles (3 km). By the entrance is Tunnel House, a pub established in the 1780s for the labourers working on the tunnel. At the time of writing (April 2021), this beautiful and historic Cotswold hostelry is closed but the building remains as a reminder of the region’s industrial heritage.
