Top notch as always How far is that drop in the first pic?

Its about 120ft apparently, though I don't think its that big. We wanted to abseil it but OT couldnt find the topside entrance to it

Nice photos Shazza! I'll add my pics when I get home tonight, although I don't think they came out that well as I was rushing a bit, and there were just too many people around! A return trip is on the cards I think, once we've brought a map so we don't get lost that is :lol:

Return trip for the win :cool2: From the looks of it, we'll need a compass as well as a map, could be interesting.

I think I'm obliged to sign up to you-know-where now

Is it a lot bigger then the photos show?And how the hell did you light that place??

... I actually though it was smaller then the photos made it look, that one room that is. But the entire place is friggin huuuuuge, get lost sooo easily down there. With junctions every couple of meters at some points. It really is like a honeycomb.

As for lighting it... You obviously haven't seen my latest torch, aka the portable sun. It was too bright for that place haha, full white outs lol. Mostly just LED torches.
