England’s Vanishing Lake Plughole

It looks peaceful. Just water. Just hills. Just another quiet place in England.

But right here the lake opens up into a giant plughole. When the water gets high,

millions of litres vanish straight down into darkness. The hole drops deep,

then disappears into tunnels hidden under the valley. Beneath this water

are the remains of villages, roads, and lives that were left behind.

Most days you’d never notice anything strange. But when it starts to drain,

this calm place shows you what it’s really hiding. Would you stand

here and watch… or turn away?
