It provided water for Edward Thompsons Paper Mill. My brother worked for Edward Thompsons and told me he had to clean it out at odd times. @Keith S30S could enlighten us more on it maybe?

The pump house for it got knocked down a few years ago, went down a few hundred feet there's a video on youtube of some urban explorers that got in before it was demolished, not the best demolishion job they basically just filled the hole with the bricks from the pump house.

The restaurants opening will give me a break from eating, going out shopping once a week means the cupboards and fridges are full...while others are doing joe wickes exercise classes or yoga, I’m learning to bake! Turns out I knock up belting cheese scones!!!
Anyways, must dash, BBQ on and I’ve got salt and chilli pork belly to lash on!

I can't add anymore than you've already said mate.
I mostly worked on the printing side at Sheepfolds. I was never involved in paper making at all.
The top of the shaft had winding gear enclosed in a steel framed building and prevented access. I don’t believe there was a pump-house as the system was gravity fed from the reservoir, down the shaft then a tunnel to the boiler house at Thompson’s Paper Mill.

This place is the best adrenalin fuelled explore I've been on bar none. XM657 'found' this place and invited me along as the descent needs climbing equipment and by the condition of the ladders you'd be a fool to attempt this without a safety rig. The initial draw was a the pumping station...
