Southern portal of Harecastle 'new' railway tunnel
As explained by another contributor SJ8453 : North portal of disused Harecastle South railway tunnel this tunnel is on a diversionary route opened in 1965. The ground under this part of Kidsgrove is a warren of human excavations, with one current and three abandoned railway tunnels, a pair of canal tunnels, and several disused mine shafts, presumably with associated levels.
