Concrete-lined stream, Lower Llanmellin

The Neddern Brook is known to be one of the main sources of water draining to the Severn Tunnel Great Spring. During construction of the Severn Tunnel in the 1880s, attempts were made to stem the inflow to the tunnel by lining with concrete some of the surface streams crossing the limestone. It had little effect.
