Description

Martin Ellis - 29/09/2019

The two entrances are linked by a narrow inclined rift. The left hand entrance is dry and has about 20m of large passage. The right hand entrance, at the end of the access track, leads down a ladder to a murky pool of static water. This chamber has not been explored, but there appears to be a small inlet passage opposite the entrance.
