100ft deep flood hole on view
Last updated 12:05, Monday, 18 August 2008
THE middle of Barrow has got a big new hole in it now that United Utilities has completed a multi million pound tank.
BELOW: View (right) from the bottom of the big hole
It has been dug as part of the ongoing £14m flood prevention scheme to stop basement areas including the library flooding after exceptional rain storms.
Excess water will run into the tank from a new relief sewer bored under Abbey Road until it can be drained away normally.
