Nodens Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 That "stream" below the dam wall is the continuation of the River Derwent. Li Purnell - there's a name that evokes old memories The tower of Derwent Church, dedicated to St. James and St. John was blown up on the 15th of December 1947.

Twoflags Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I don't know about where it goes but the pics and video is awesome, scary but impressive. I wonder how long it would take to empty the resevoir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FORE Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I wonder how long it would take to empty the resevoir. Depends on the size of the hole!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubydazzler Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 hehe sorry Ruby, I myself find the clips and pictures of it quite scary, which is why I'd like more info on it. msbehavin started a thread on this a while ago and almost everyone was scared of the damn things! I've done a search but it must have been culled sometime. It's a pity, there were some great pix and some good stories on it. edit: couldn't find it here but google Ladybower, scarey, pix and quite a few different threads come up, including the msb one! http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/archive/index.php/t-204401.html eekkkks though, some of these are even worse! http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=111702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastair Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 If you drained all the water out of Ladybower what would the Glory Holes look like? Would they be tall thin towers or are there big rooms beneath the plugholes to house the rotating blades and other sinister equipment? What lies beneath?

rubydazzler Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 ALISTAIR!!! stoppitt! you're scaring me. I used to have this dream where the water had all gone and I was climbing down the 'steps' in the giant's plughole, when all of a sudden, I could hear the water thundering towards the edge .....
