Warning
A report of a collapse in the entrance shaft was received 16/11/2023. Around the level of the 3rd rebelay, a caver stood on a ledge which then collapsed under them and sent large rocks falling down the shaft and left an unsupported area of deads in the shaft wall. Follow up visits by local cavers cleared the loose debris and inspected the area. Although no further instability in this section was noted, the warning will remain shown here for now for awareness and so that cavers can approach this section with care.
Parts of the mine are in a dangerous state of collapse, and great care is needed.
