Greenwich Foot Tunnel

Finding yourself alone in the Greenwich Foot Tunnel is, at best, a deeply unsettling experience and, at worst, one that will leave you gasping for the safety of the ground above. Built in 1902 the tunnel is 370 metres long and 15 metres deep. The echos created by the sounds of fellow walkers entering the tunnel make for a very eerie experience. Access the tunnel via Cutty Sark Gardens.
