Hi,

am working in Weymouth from 28th June until 20th July, and will be caving on
Portland in the evenings. Anyone fancy joining me give us a shout

Thanks Chris

Can you post your findings about the latest state of play re access, please?

I will send you a pm and give you a contact on Portland, he is not on the forum so you will have to ring him.

Topher,

I no longer live in Weymouth, but have plenty of "previous" for Portland caving.  My parents stil live locally and I am planning a couple of "projects" on the island this summer.  Drop me a PM if you are interested.

I've wondered about caving on Portland - I've seen a few large areas of flowstone that have been bolted for climbing (exposed by the quarrying, i presume), so guessed there must have been caves about somewhere...

These caves on portland.... what are they like? (srt? walk around, crawling etc?)
I have relative down there, and wouldnt mind taking a look around if im there allready. However i would be taken a less experience person (ie just done walk arounds) and I havent rigged so SRT is out of the question.
