Hi All,
Not specifically Mendip, but probably the best place to ask this question. I recently obtained a copy of the Rodway School Caves of Mendip - had a nose round the Nightingale Valley side of the gorge this afternoon, managed to find Skeleton Cave but not much else. Looked for quite a while to find Rodway Ruckle, couldn't locate it and got v stung in the process! Also got to quarry 5 where some of the caves are but it was getting dark and looks hard to access, esp as one of the descriptions noted that the cave was 65ft up a steep slope so we headed back at that point.
I wondered firstly if anyone has had any success in finding any of the caves & if so which one's. Also wondered if anyone would like a trip to have a nose in some more of them (ideally someone who has been there before or who has GPS and a better sence of direction than me!)
Thanks in advance!
