Updated 3rd May 2024

   Significant water works, obvious and hidden, are found below a wooded limestone outcrop just north of the "mothballed" housing estate at Hazas de Cesto. An fenced, large holding tank stands next to the road and, a few metres to a south, a manhole cover hides a large flanged pipe. Whether the abstracted water is being pumped up a borehole from the depths or whether a shallow rising has been captured is unclear.
   A prominent walking route up a gully between smooth limestone buttresses encounters a rift on the right. (The position above may be a bit out due to the tree cover.)
   The walk-in rift with an alcove on the left has a possible dig through a narrow section.
   The site was revisited in April 2024.
