Growling Hole

Location
SD 7130 7745

History
The original entrance was entered after digging by the BSA (Harry Long, Mike Clarke and others) in September 1968 who then explored the cave down to the bottom of The Fault, and most of the upstream passages. LUSS undertook a high grade survey in 1971 and 1972 as part of their East Kingsdale project, and in doing so pushed the upstream passages underneath what is now the current entrance, and beyond for some 100 metres. They opened up the new entrance at the same time, and soon after that the original entrance collapsed.
