Its been put on hold by NE due to us finding the bones of what turned out to be 4 x humans!!
The results from the first batch of testing took us all by surprise. We were expecting them to be about 250 years old, they turned out to be over 2000 years old!!!
We are currently waiting on the outcome of some further testing before the 'powers that be' decide if the dig can continue, considering the age of the remains and the number of humans. We should know by October.
Eldon Hole is still open and all the up pitches were only recently re-rigged with new (ish) ropes and anchors. If you go down to look at the dig face just avoid disturbing anything at the bottom.
