An excavated, draughting entrance at the base of a big, flat-bottomed depression near the old telephone exchange that drops into a small joint controlled "mini-system" with a number of leads, some of which are described in this logbook account from the summer 2010 work.

Work was planned to cap a boulder in the draughting choke at the end of the cave in April 2014, but access was refused by a farmer renting the field from the owner who lives in a nearby house. Permission from the owner has now now been granted for future work - but it is best to turn up at the weekend when he might be around!

A visit in March 2018 recorded extensive logging work in the area but the site "still exists". It was (re-)surveyed in April 2019, to include new passage, increasing the surveyed length from 50m to 90m.
