Description

Martin Ellis - 17/02/2020

At the bottom of the entrance climb a large passage descends steeply down breakdown and soil to a boulder and flowstone choke at the bottom. This cave contains many massive speleothems, some of which are broken (earthquake damage?). A small round ball of mud was found at the bottom of the cave. This was probably used as slingshot ammunition by someone catching birds or bats.
