[edit] The Buried River Sheaf?

I like the link to the SilentUK article, but they don't say where or what this underground water way is; is it really the Sheaf? The only culverted stretch of the river it could be is between Granville Square and where it reaches the Don (somewhere around Blonk Street?) and it seems hard to believe that it goes deep enough to allow such a spacious set of tunnels. --VinceBowdren 10:16, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

I removed the link--it doesn't say where it is, and it is unusual to link to external sites just for photographs. —Jeremy (talk) 14:52, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
A quick check in town reveals that it is indeed the Sheaf; the large two-tunnel entrance in one of the later photos is the point where it surfaces near Ponds Forge (google maps view) --VinceBowdren 16:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
