The Big Humpty is a large culvert on Manchester's River Medlock. Its actually called the Bank Bridge Culvert. It is situated to the east of Manchester near Clayton Vale. This is a video that tells a story about a section of the river Medlock and goes into the History of Manchester. We look at the remnants of old factories and the possible mine drainage sough of the Old Bradford colliery a Mine in Manchester. A large flood along the section of the river washed away parts of a graveyard . This History documentary and urban explore goes through a large culvert telling the story of the river as we go. Underground Manchester at its finest.

Hello Martin. Excellent video, as usual. The engineers "back in t' day" weren't as daft as it might seem. The idea of bricking the riverbed is exactly to provide a fast, smooth route for the river, not to slow it down at all. When you've got a lot of water coming in, you need to get a lot of water through, and fast. A natural riverbed will snag trees, rocks, and lord knows what else, and in a flood situation it will start eroding the banks. This happens fast - in 1872, it took an hour from the start of the flood to taking out the cemetery - around here in 2015 we had major flood, from the time where the river started to leave its bed due to natural damming with a few trees, it took under 10 minutes to utterly and absolutely remove a quarter of a mile of road, which took 2 years to put back in....

The old photos of the arches and the men working in what look like miserable conditions contrasted with the modern filming of the area really brings history to life. This is what makes your channel so great. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for showing that Martin,I have lived in Australia for the past 55 years,the Medlock I knew was the free running part up to Daisy Nook area,green fields clean river, used to go to the Meddie as kids most weekends, about the age of 11 we discovered the Red River,and it was an amazing discovery at that age,me and my pal Geoff Davies could not figure out what was going on,pure dread and excitement,I am 83 now so this was 70 odd years ago,I can't remember the Humpty but vaguely remember at one point we had to have our backs to the wall and inch slowly forward,the whole journey along the Red River was a scary eye opener,I don't think we got much further than Bradford pit,maybe to where City stadium is now,it was just a one off, no desire to ever go there again, sad to see the Meddie harnessed like that,a very dangerous playground for kids in those days.

Another good one Martin. There is a similar set-up on the river at Stoneyholme in Burnley. It is stone rather than brick, but seems to do the same job of getting floodwater through as quickly as possible. It has a small channel for the daily flow, but a wider squared-off stone channel for higher flows. I remember seeing it in full spate as a child, bloody scary when you’re stood (or rather running as fast as poss over it, ha ha) on the bridge over it, water lapping the underside! Aaargh.

Hi Martin, re: your waders. Dry the waders out, and hang them up! Fill the right leg up with water to locate where the hole is, then mark it. Then get yourself a tube of aquasure, most good tackle shops sell it or go online. Then follow the instructions (once they have dried out again) I have used waders for fishing for 30+yrs, and have had an extra 4yrs just from one repair of this stuff!!! Really interesting vid as always, thanks!

Another great adventure. Hope your coat washed OK. I always thought that the flood prevention in the red brick river was the width of the overall channel. Whereas the central channel was created for when the flow is light, so it would not meander and always have a focussed water channel to keep any debris on the move. Thanks again, Pete

Roy is an absolute diamond, what a great friend to have. Loved the pictures of the building work in the Medlock, a narrow gauge line, traction engines and a river diversion show just what a major task it was. Also good to see the pictures from the Bradford Colliery, in particular the steam lorry taking a full load of coal out. If you watch John Mills doubleboost channel you will occasionally see one of these lorries in steam and running. A grisly tale from the floods in 1872. I've been caught out a couple of times in my car in flash floods over here, it can be seriously dangerous and often costs lives. Roy's footage from that storm drain in full flow shows just how powerful it can be. Great video and lovely to hear that Medlock music again, well done!! Good luck from Portsmouth (back home in Spain tomorrow)!!

Hi Martin. Thumbs up on another excellent video from you & friends. I was pleasantly surprised you added more to the Medlock series👍 As mentioned in latter comments; The brick gully was designed to take water away quickly at both low & average to high flows. This was a two-fold design to take along silt & detritus with it. You've mentioned yourself in previous videos how polluted the river was, so the fast flow even in drought conditions prevented foul sediments building up; they were effectively flushed through. Secondly: In higher flash-flood conditions the water has that huge open slightly sloped area to flood onto without causing damage to the side-walls. Likewise, larger detritus would still get swept away & not cause a blockage or flood the land. Anything too big left behind after water levels receded was easily removed out of the way manually. I really love all your videos, it's your content that drew me into subscribing etc. on here on RU-vid. 'Really appreciated, thanks fella 👍

"That's a sewer overflow and you can almost taste it" UGH---to much info. (15:54) Martin, how could YOU lose the Medlock???? Just thinking: Maybe the Victorians bricked the Medlock to move the sewage, chemicals, trash and anything else dumped in it so the water would flow along quicker to the River Irwell? Your side by side maps are great, they really help tell the story. Thanks to the team for helping with the video.....
