SK4255 : Air shaft

near to Alfreton, Derbyshire, Great Britain

Air shaft

This unassuming brick structure sitting beside a layby on the A38 is an air shaft for ventilating the Alfreton railway tunnel, which passes under the road here. A footpath passes by just behind it. The notice on the fence is to warn lorry drivers of the danger of having their load stolen here.
