Description
Noddle End Windypit is one of a series of potholes on the North Yorkshire Moors formed by the valleyward movement of blocks of limestone over the underlying Oxford Clay.

Special permission from English Nature is required to descend any of the 'Windypits' on the moors as most are listed as Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI's).

Noddle End Windypit is by no means an epic trip, but an interesting look at a different type of pothole. Some interesting almost un-toutched and unseen formations in some of the side passages.

Due to the nature of its formation, there are lots of loose rocks, so great care is required.
