Description
After a short climb into the entrance the cave descends steeply for about 16m through a series of short, awkward climbs to the top of a rift. To the right an upward sloping passage quickly closes down while to the left the impressive main route continues for about 45m via 2 short climbs up and over boulders and past fine curtains and stalagmites to where the passage narrows to 1m at an awkward earthy loose slope at the head of a 15m pitch. The passage below is a well decorated rift chamber about 20m long and 4m wide without an obvious exit.
