Ditzy: Be careful what you say! It's OK to notice that there is a bat in a cave and tell us, but if you are going round deliberately counting them without a licence, then technically I think you are breaking the law. I'm sure you did no harm, but this is just a heads up.

i didnot count the bats purposely as i wasnt looking for them they wer just the bats that i noticed whilst down there

A big chamber just beneath the surface with a steep sloping wall on one side, and boulders and holes in the floor? 10 minutes walk from Goatchurch? It's been mentioned before, but those boulder chokes have moved in recent years.

They both have streams, but I am willing to bet you mean the one with the big chamber. There are two entrances, a dry climb down on the right & a wet walk in on the left. Interesting place with much Iron Age archaeology.
Pete, more than the boulders have moved; when you & I started caving the stream entrance simply didn't exist! the upper levels are reasonably stable but the lower bits are a bit scary.
