A hole found many years ago when Garzón was "out-of-area". It was then partially re-explored in the late 2010's to give the following description:

   Myself , Dave Milner and Phil Goodwin managed to find it again and laddered the first pitch from the surface with a long belay from a tree with an 25ft ladder which lands you on a heap of scrap iron and household rubbish. At this point, it is a short, large passage which chokes at both ends but might repay to have another look at this.
    Off to one side of this is an angled descent to a narrow meandering stream way with various small climbs which soon levels out but it became too tight for me and Phil. Dave, who was in front decided to call off any further exploration on his own. Further on from where Dave got to is a second pitch which, if my memory is correct, was shown on Lank's survey between 30 to 35ft. The narrow passage continues to a tight section or a blockage. Somewhere between the base of the second pitch and the tight section is a climb up to a high level passage which they entered and could possibly be a route past the top of the narrow section. Probably best to ask Lank for a more concise description. Definitely a thin person trip.
