Entrance

Entrance was in the bottom left corner of a decent sized shake hole with a tree in it.

Description

A narrow entrance gives way to a pitch that is narrow and bridgeable towards the top. 10m to rebelay / deviation and then 20m to floor and a continuing sloping rift.

The sloping rift leads to an tight vertical squeeze with a pitch beyond. The squeeze was enlarged in 1988 and leads to 6m pitch

At the bottom of the pitch is a chamber with a rift sloping at about 20-30 degrees with some possible ways on but no obvous way forward found
