I love this place, Explored it back in 2010 and when I heard it was open again I had to go back, Bit of History for those of you that dont know;

Crete Road / Silver Springs Reservoir, Construction work was completed on July 1866, It was alleged to have supplied the Silver Springs Soft Drinks Company with water although some other History that I have read seems to contradict this, There are two tanks, Each approx 88ft long and lined with cement, They are Interconnected by arch ways, So so Pics ;)
