This leads to a chamber, from where it is possible to slither to the left through a gap between choss and the ceiling. Here there are two ways on. To the right ends quickly; a dig under the wall ended in a further choke. To the left leads to a tight crawl through dangerous boulders which would need digging to make further progress.</p><p>A noticable draught outwards is present throughout the cave.</underground_description> <equipment></equipment> <references></references> <survey></p><div class="centre"><a href="249plan.png"><img alt="2002 survey png" src="249plansmall.png" /></a></div><p></survey> <kataster_status></kataster_status> <underground_centre_line></underground_centre_line> <notes></notes> <length></length> <depth></depth> <extent></extent> <survex_file>caves/249/249.svx</survex_file> <description_file>smkridge/249/249.html</description_file> <url>smkridge/249/249.html</url> </cave> </body> </html>
