Two entrances to an exceptional man-made rock chamber near Hadda (note 1) noticed SIMPSON (1882a: 331 plate 2, 1882b): In plate 2 a plan of this Cave is given, mainly to show the form of one of the exceptional Caves… Its length in one direction is 50 feet [resulting in some 60 m of tunnel passages]. The side and roof were in a tumble-down condition. There were some remains of plaster on the circular roof.
