(Drive down the bridle path â€" parking is very close to the end of the lane past the farm. We DO have permission from the farm to use the road and the parking)


Notes : This cave is “squeezy”. Descent is by a 10 foot maypole ladder, there is a flat out crawl of around 30 feet and a rope assisted descent down a pot of, around 15 feet at 45 degrees then 10 feet vertical. This is usually done with a “flying angel” but you can clip on with “down gear” if you want. If you are in doubt, please ask on the forum.

- It is suggested that we may lifeline individuals down here, so we will bring the lifeline kit just in case.


Suitable for novices with some experience.


If you do fancy coming, please could you let us know by posting to the forum. No worries if you don’t know.



Thanks !



See you soon…..
