Description

Martin Ellis - 02/11/2020

A small concrete dam ponds the water, to allow it to be piped away, before the stream drops over a 2m high limestone cliff. The actual sink is heavily overgrown with vegetation, but the stream can be heard in a nearby rift that is 5m wide, 15m long and 3m deep.
