One and a half miles long and intended as a carriage drive broad enough for two carriages to pass, this led towards Worksop. The tunnel was abandoned in the late nineteenth century when the section forming part of the lake dam failed.

Remaining stretches of tunnel survive on either side of the lake. The sites of skylights can be seen from the Robin Hood Way footpath which follows the course of the tunnel, and a masonry tunnel entrance can be seen between two lodges at the northeastern limit of the park.
