"An undescended, sloping hole in the side of a shakehole with a cliff. There is possible passage about 5m down and there is a faint draught."

   The site location is Barrio Robanzo. [A previous grid reference was 448684 4796699]
   This hole was re-revisited in August 2023 when a short climb down a 2m shaft entered a sloping 3m across chamber with a pitch at the base. This is presently blocked by 3 small boulders which can be removed with a bar. The drop seems to be about 6m and is probably best tackled with a ladder. (See 2023 video below.)
    In July 2024 the shaft was explored: laddered for about 3m but dropping about 5m. A climb down follows into choked chambers with very spikey rock. The site was surveyed out and abandoned as having no serious prospects.
