DCA's Legal & Insurance Officer has been in touch with Joe Oldfield and he is agreeable for cavers to use his office car park at weekends and weekday evenings to help prevent further confrontations with the owner of Holme Hall.  It means cavers can park and change out of sight of the Holme Hall entrance.  Note the concession does not apply during weekday office hours.

If you do this, please only use Entrance 2, which is just behind Joe Oldfield's office (do not try to use Entrance 1 which is closer to Holme Hall).

Thanks to Joe Oldfield for his help, which will at least allow limited access for the present.  DCA is still working to regain full access to Holme Bank Chert Mine but it is proving problematic.

Jenny Potts,
DCA Hon. Sec.
