Barbon Pot
After several years of effort the 2 tons of waste blocking the top of the entrance shaft has been cleared by Sam Lieberman and Ray Duffy. The CNCC conservation volunteers dragged the waste down to the road for recycling and disposal. Thanks to Daleswaer of Ingleton for 'design and build' of a drag sheet made from tackle sac material with webbing straps which made the job much easier. Epic effort all round. The cave at the bottom of the beautiful 50ft shaft is now being re surveyed by Ray and Sam. Access details on the CNCC website
