The Hook Underpass was the first of its type in the country, there is
even a model of it in the Science Museum, but one innovative feature
it had when first built didn't catch on and was quickly removed.
Clue: it was noisy.
The title of the thread makes me suspect that Lemmy was installed in the
tunnel somewhere, but that doesn't sound right.

It isn't a tunnel, it's a roundabout on top of the A3 in a cutting,
nowadays a very ordinary intersection but in it's time quite something.
As was the "Ace of Spades" roadhouse on the old roundabout which had not
only a swimming pool but also an airfield.
The "innovative feature" was not Lemmy, but you are in the right order
of noisitude, two *very* noisy things one on either side of the road.
