The gate wasn't locked but it was so firmly wedged we couldn't open it and had to lift bikes over and then climb it. The diversion off Gledstone Road through the farm wasn't worth it for the short distance off road.

This is a mile-long tunnel locates on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal. It is the longest tunnel on the canal and due to its narrow design boats would once be legged through it.
