Hiking

This horse tunnel carried the second Caldon Low wagonway (constructed in 1785) below a fourth one (1847) and suggests that the earlier route must still have been in use at this time. These two wagonways followed a similar route down the incline to Froghall Wharf, although most evidence of the earlier route has now been lost.
