Digbeth, Birmingham, England, August 10th 2022. - These Victorian tunnels have been revealed as water levels dropped vastly in Birmingham city centre. The underground culvert was constructed in 1890 to divert the River Rea through Birmingham's industrial centre. Today the culvert acts as a storm drain, during wet weather it rises as high as the ceiling. Despite the searing hot temperatures outside it is very cool underground.
