Have seen mumblings on another (lesser!) web-board that Eccleston Delph is being developed into a dive centre. There is a website on the subject but info seems sketchy. Bearing in mind I live in Huddersfield which is as far from open water as you could possibly get in the UK (I spent 3 hrs driving to and 3 hrs returning from Vivian quarry on Saturday just to get a couple of dives in!!), a dive centre in Eccleston would be ideal for me (and most other Yorkshire divers!). Just wondering if any of you have any news on this?

Regards

Reports indicate its filling up supposedly 16m at moment.
Consensus of opinion from those who have dived it, seems to be little theres little see at moment just a few newts.

Of course, back then we didn't call 'em Newts, they were called Velocipedes and were a kind of chinz colour as was the fashion of the time - shit, need to get that prescription refilled again!
