Time Team on Channel 4 today looked at the navvy settlement, dating from the 1870s, around one of the airshafts of Risehill tunnel, between Dent and Garsdale on the Settle and Carlisle line. Although we did not see inside the tunnel (where track replacement seemed to be in progress) there were interesting descriptions of the building process.
The programme will be repeated on Channel 4 on Saturday 7th February at 7pm.
