Glasgow&#8217;s lost village which was demolished to make way for the train line.<\/p>\n<p>Mitchell said: &#8220;It was a privilege to get to see hidden Glasgow history, it was just sheer luck to see an access point &#8211; but to then crawl through a small hole is not recommended to others.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I really enjoyed this place but it is so minuscule to what I believe is out there to be uncovered and re-looked at for future generations to admire and know more of Glasgow&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p>Inside bizarre abandoned \u2018love motel\u2019 where randy couples bonked on beds shaped like boxing rings &amp; fairground rides<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have some adventure training as well as rescue training but never progressed in that field as a career but I do hold credentials that benefit my explorations.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So just for safety&#8217;s sake, I like to remind others to not imitate what they see. Especially this area.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was insightful to see in this underground area though as I always assumed that there must be something there.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had hoped for Grahamston remnants, but this layer is one of which that covered Grahamston essentially, in the railway&#8217;s construction for creating Central Station.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel that in these forgotten hidden places there is some form of energy or something peculiar that many pick up on. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A sometimes scary feeling and other times comforting and calming, either way, it is easily noticeable in contrast to non-abandoned places.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Maybe it&#8217;s just the melancholy visuals of old workers&#8217; equipment and not knowing who they were, but it grants a closeness to history that most museums don&#8217;t have. It&#8217;s raw and feels alive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Interior of Glasgow's hidden tunnels.\" height=\"553\" width=\"741\" data-credit=\"YouTube\/@Urban-Expeditions\" data-img=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/hidden-glasgow-tunnels-https-www-986530945.png\" data-caption=\"Mitchell described the site as &quot;creepy&quot;\"   loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/hidden-glasgow-tunnels-https-www-986530945.png\" role=\"img\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>6<\/p>\n<p>Mitchell described the site as &#8220;creepy&#8221;Credit: YouTube\/@Urban-Expeditions<a href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Interior of Glasgow's hidden tunnels.\" height=\"558\" width=\"415\" data-credit=\"YouTube\/@Urban-Expeditions\" data-img=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/hidden-glasgow-tunnels-https-www-986530892.png\" data-caption=\"He found an access point by &quot;sheer luck&quot; and crawled through a small hole to get underneath the bustling street\"   loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/hidden-glasgow-tunnels-https-www-986530892.png\" role=\"img\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>6<\/p>\n<p>He found an access point by &#8220;sheer luck&#8221; and crawled through a small hole to get underneath the bustling streetCredit: YouTube\/@Urban-Expeditions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AN URBAN explorer discovered eerie hidden tunnels beneath a busy Glasgow street.
