I heard about some strange tunnels under Liverpool on Radio 4 this morning, but was unable to catch the name of the eccentric character who built them and under which part of the city they run.

Can anyone direct me to a site that gives more information about this baffling, yet interesting construction?

Does anyone know...

There is nothing like a dame.

This is absolutely fascinating. Thank you. I was brought up in Liverpool, went to school and worked there and knew NOTHING of all this. The website is now in my favourites.

i have been down them.

they are curious but not as you probably imagine. essentially the are muddy cellar type long rooms, and there i sonly about 6 of them at about 30ft -40ft each as they haven't excavated that much yet. the story behind is much more interesting than the tunnels themselves
