Description
The drainage tunnel exit on the north bank of the River Wansbeck dates from the late 18th century to early 19th century. It is made of squared stone and features a round arch that is 2 metres high and wide, set within a taller wall. To the left of the arch, there is a large stepped buttress made of tooled-and-margined stone. Although How Burn is currently channeled through the tunnel, it appears that this structure was built as part of the drainage works for the former Howburn Colliery. This site is included for its historical interest.
