Updated 30th April 2016

   The 1996 grid reference is 30T 452928 4797251. A new (2016) grid reference (30T 452896 4797215) puts it close to the position of 1019 - this site may need moving. They are not one and the same as they were originally investigated on the same day by the same people. However, the new position appears to put site 1200 out of the woods whereas the original 18/8/1996 discoverers placed it "at head height ... in the cliff in the wooded section." The old grid reference is shown in the header.

   A body sized tube 2m up cliff in wood. The required lump hammer was used at Easter 2016 to access 3m of low phreatic passage to a low chamber with sandstone formations. There is a possible way on at the back over a muddy calcite floor, but it is very small and would require a lot of digging.
