   First documented as site X026 and first surveyed by Emilio and co.
   A low 8.8m long cave (resurveyed 2020) with a possible draughting dig at the end on the right (not shown on the original survey). Two metres was gained here in September 2021. A left hand bend reaches a very low, but draughting, dig. Further progress was made in April 2023.
   Two visits in August 2023 removed 25 tubs of spoil and, after passing a low passage on the left, reached a low chamber with more digging required, "but not looking very promising". The draught seemed to have been lost. It was found that the low passage on the left was taking a good draught so, next time, the digging focus will be there.
