The excavated entrance is on a ledge, 2m above a small depression next to the road, and may be a tad closer to the road than the GPS grid reference indicates.
A 12m pitch has a tight start then opens out into a large, well decorated
chamber about 30m long, 20m wide and 6m high. The chamber is floored with
large, dropped blocks with no obvious route through. Two flowstone inlets
close down after a couple of body lengths.
Although rubble from the road widening works in 2009 has fallen into the small depression, the site entrance above appears untouched.
