The thing in North Wales is indeed connected with the HEP in the mountain. It's a breather hole for the massive pipes between Llyn Marchlyn Mawr at the top, and Llyn Peris at the bottom. And no, I doubt falling down it would do you any good at all...

Massive pliers, We're doomed

@pook: I think that's just a railway tunnel ventilation shaft - there's a railway disappearing into the hillside to the west...

I can't explain the pliers though...

yes, that's one of the Totley tunnel air shafts.
carbon337, I assume that's a photoshop job?
Edit: it's not

I know, I shimmed up the side once and looked in. It's terrifying - more so when I realised I was on a one brick width wall looking into a 400ft shaft.
