This is a great little cave, but quite strenuous!

Having got the key from Roger we all went down the ladder and straight into a descending crawl that finally emerged into a large well decorated chamber. Then through more squeezes and climbs before arriving at the top of the pitch that Will rigged.

The pitch is long and awkward, the ladder runs against the sloping wall all the way with two pinch points. Despite linking two ladders they didn’t quite reach the bottom leaving a straight forward free climb.

Through a squeeze a lake was reached that most waded through to some passage beyond. We returned via the same route.

After much discussion as to which pub was closest we ended up in the Hunters
