<underground_description>The entrance is the head of a 10m freeclimbable chimney, followed by a 5m climb into a small chamber. Two ways on from the chamber unite in a tiny crawl under a drip. A thrutch through (about the size of Baptistry in Car Pot) is <b>The Nun's Cunt</b>, which ends abruptly at <b>The Vestry</b>, where SRT gear can be put back on while perched above the pitch which follows. Drops of 15m, 20m and 20m, <b>The Bottomless Abbess</b>, lead to a traverse over a blind pitch of about 10m.</p><p>The Bottomless Abbess continues with pitches of 15m, 30m, 15m and 15m to a short horizontal section. This breaks out into the side of another shaft where 15m and 10m pitches lead to a more complex area. A short pitch of 6m leads to the <b>Priest's Hole</b> and a gently slanting ramp into a dry, dusty, abandoned phreatic passage. This is interrupted by a large hole in the floor, which would require bolts to cross.</p><p>Down the hole, the 25m pitch starts unpromisingly, but soon bells out into a magnificent trench passage. Traversing over a gully leads to a series of short climbs and a fine last pitch <b>The Dissolution</b>. Here the water sinks into an impenetrable crack.</p><p>The entrance draughts strongly, but there is no air movement at the end, the most likely way on being the traverse to reach the continuation of the phreatic level at -190m. Unfortunately, the trip to this point is quite severe, since the crawl would render rescue impractical and the Bottomless Abbess rapidly becomes very wet after rain.</underground_description>
