   A 3m shaft with an excavated top lands on boulders with impassable draughting rift. Marked 440.
   The Easter '94 log describes a walled off area with a slot descended for about 10m to a draughting, narrow slot which needs digging.
   The site could not be found in April 2022 but was found on a later visit and a new grid reference documented. (Old GR 449868,4796371). It was checked out again on May 22nd and described as 3m deep with a very tight rift continuing down for about another 3m. It would be very hard work to dig.
