2399 shaft
Cobadal 30T 0449267 4797268 Altitude 443m Length 30m Depth 16m

Shaft named Caroline's Big Hole. An impressive rift hidden in an area of scrub and trees below site 2073 (or is it 923?). A 5 x 1.5m opening can be descended 8m to a floor at the highest end. The floor slopes down into a large, fluted rift about 5m wide at the base and round the corner to the right where the floor is choked with mud. Some digging has been attempted.
There is a possible continuation in the roof of the rift over the mud choke. A serious climb using suspect holds has not been attempted.
