Lydbrook Junction

On a damp morning the cold air from the abandoned tunnel leading to Lydbrook Junction condenses into a cloud. The tunnel portal is below left of the cloud, behind the trees. The earthworks right of the cloud are the remains of lime kilns on Coppett Hill.



Note from S. Neave: The air in Lydbrook tunnel is warmer, not colder. That's why it's water vapour condenses in the colder outside temp (like a steam engine).
