The entrance is approached from near the top of the TV mast track by passing the barn to the west and gently descending into the valley.

The entrance in a shakehole has been excavated and a narrow passage descends through a couple of chambers to 200m of larger, sandstone-floored streamway with short climbs down as the stream has cut through the sandstone. This ends at a low section onto a 5m ladder pitch and a further 6m handline climb to floor of bridged rubble. The main pitch starts its descent from here...
