Nice easy short walk. Definitely worth the stop to break a journey. Tunnel was manageable without a torch. Some steps and an abundance of Sandflies

I love this spot, it is a great place to take a break in your drive and has a nice combination of nature and history. Make sure you have your insect repellant out though. A torch is essential if you want to walk through the tunnel.
