Here's a picture of the entrance to a tunnel which goes for around 2 miles and exits in Starcross...and also goes up to the Mamhead obelisk. Read about it on the Devon Sculpture Park's website.

The entrance is disguised, not very well, as an ice house.
Ice houses were usually placed near to the kitchens, but this ice house is a long way away from any house. It sits incongruously in the middle of a field. Surely, the customs men would have twigged it?
Experienced cavers say that this tunnel is not safe to explore. After all it might be a couple of hundred years old.
Does anybody have any stories to tell about this tunnel: where it comes out and what it was used for?
