Top entrance (originally positioned at VN53849728) lies above cliff and is
a 5m climb followed by a 10m pitch (marked M-2 in old red paint) to a tight,
draughting hole and a 15m pitch landing in a bouldery chamber.
To the west is a draughting bedding to three small chambers, the draught
disappears out along a small hole. To the east lies a window into a small
chamber and two obvious exits. Down leads through boulders to the base of
a 20m pitch; straight on, the route splits, the left way leads to the surface
through a series of crawls and squeezes, emerging at the base of the cliff
(probably in site 273 or 274)
while ahead a muddy rift leads to a traverse around the head of the 20m pitch
and a climb up into a large chamber (approximately 80m x 40m). The chamber
contains a number of pitches, all of which are choked.
A site marked M4, pictured below, is more or less at the same position
and is a 1m diameter, 15m deep (undescended) hole. The nearby M5 is probably
site 1585.
