The Williamson Tunnels

Deep beneath Liverpool, England lie and long forgotten about network of tunnels, caverns and chambers.  They lie forgotten about beneath Liverpool and YOU CAN HELP save them by voting at the website below.  Please vote for our good friends The Joseph Williamson Society.

They were dug over 200 years ago by an eccentric rich merchant called Joseph Williamson. He spent about thirty years of his life paying unemployed men to dig these tunnels and then he died in 1840 - without leaving any maps, plans or telling anybody what the heck he was playing at!

SHUB have been privileged enough to be allowed to explore part of this hidden network, big thanks to the Joseph Williamson Society.










They are a small charity being run by volunteers and need your help to secure £6000 of funding.

If you could spare two minutes to register and vote for the Joseph Williamson Society at the NatWest Community Force Wesbite

it would be greatly appreciated. For two minutes of your time you could help save a unique part of Britains heritage.


On behalf of SHUB, Thank You.
