Description

In October 1964, an article in Laing's monthly newsletter 'Team Spirit' records that a complex maze of structures all within 1,000 feet was built near the Dog and Partridge pub, including twin culverts, a box-type road bridge, a cattle access tunnel and a twin bore taking Saredon Brook. Saredon Brook passes under the motorway at grid reference SJ9432008679.

This image was catalogued as part of the Breaking New Ground Project in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20.
