Altitude: ~370 m

A small manhole entrance, about 40m SW of Jingling Pot

Description
A brick lined shaft drops into more natural surroundings and you descend ~40m via numerous rebelays. At the bottom a small passage leads to a 10m pitch. From the bottom, further passage is followed before two options for reaching the large Aquamole Aven present themselves. Aquamole Aven is a fine 40m pitch which lands near the sumps.

Before reaching Aquamole Aven a passage heads off in the direction of the base of Jingling Pot.

Access
Prior permission is not required.

History
Aquamole Aven was originally discovered and climbed by divers.

Further climbing (and digging?) revealed passages and a shaft heading towards the surface, which resulted in a surface dig being started.
