The Holborn one is still there \u2013 ghostly and abandoned \u2013 although the Aldwych station was lost when part of the southern section of the tunnel was used to construct the Strand road underpass in 1964.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The tunnel is rarely open to the public although I was lucky enough to get a look inside when it was opened for an art exhibition in 2009, Chord by Conrad Shawcross \u2013 a giant mechanical installation with two machines moving away from each other along the tracks, weaving a hawser made from spools of coloured string, creaking away mysteriously in the darkened tunnel.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Recently the tunnel has been used by Crossrail to build a grout shaft to pump concrete into the ground to firm it and protect the surrounding buildings from ground movement during the boring of the tunnel. Crossrail have agreed to restore the tunnel, including re-instating the tram rails and the cobbles once the work has been completed. If there\u2019s a chance to visit following that, I highly recommend it.&#8221;<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Jen is looking at the history of the Thames embankments on her walk the <a href=\"http:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/themes\/footprints\/walk.php?id=15929310998\" target=\"_blank\">River in Chains<\/a><\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">3 St\u00a0Bride&#8217;s church crypt<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-large wp-image-4271 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"st brides church crypt\" width=\"806\" height=\"605\" srcset=\"https:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o.jpg 300w, https:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o.jpg 1612w, https:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/3558276919_a8b787be5c_o.jpg 2418w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 806px) 100vw, 806px\" \/><\/a> <span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/footprintsoflondon.com\/rob-smith\" target=\"_blank\">Rob Smith<\/a> chose the crypt of St Brides Church. &#8220;There are so many interesting church crypts in London, but I really love visiting the museum in the crypt of St Brides.

Thousands flocked to the tunnel &#8211; visitors descending staircases in drum shaped caissons. The tunnel is still used to carry London Overground trains under the Thames and at Wapping station it is well worth descending using the stairs to get a view of the modified caisson entrance.
