Hazards and Warnings
Warning 7 years ago
Warning received 20th April 2025: The approach to dickory pitch has collapsed. Below hickory pitch it is still possible to squeeze through the boulder choke (although a previous in situ rope is well trapped so this has clearly moved), numerous blocks are now unsupported. Below the choke, instead of a walk to the top of dickory pitch, there is now a 40 degree slope of rubble/gravel/boulders leading directly to the roof tunnel, which was previously 4m down the pitch. The previous anchors are now around 3-4m above the floor so can't be reached. The flat out crawl after dock pitch was totally filled to the roof with rubble too. We advise against any visits to this cave until remedial work is performed.
