A couple of days ago we decided to go for a short walk down to the old Hawkhurst Branch Line and check out the Badger’s Oak Tunnel, somewhere that I had heard about but not visited. It was very wet and very dark and without a tripod I had no options but hand-held so a visit in the summer armed with a tripod is definitely on the cards.

The tunnel was constantly dripping and although it has been around for a good few years, I sis start to wonder if it has many years left before it is lost.

very dark and very wet

it’s good to use a “Neil” to get some idea of scale

the way out was a little damp

… and dark

Badger’s Oak Tunnel – you can see right through

some welcome colour after the darkness
