Bull Pot of The Witches - Robert's Passage Hydrology

Does anyone know the hydrology of the middle series of Bull Pot of the Witches, around the Burnett's Passage Area?

Specifically, I'm interested in where the water goes from the Open Pot. Initially, it flows into Robert's Passage (heading towards Gour Chambers), but I suspect it then cuts off to the left towards Burnett's Passage.

Has anyone got any recollection of what this then does in high water - does it flow along Burnett's Passage and out the bottom of the "Complex Junction Chamber [as described in NC3]" into the downstream series, or does it leave at some earlier point?

I was hoping to work this out from the surveys, but I don't have a cached copy of the big one on CaveMaps - if anyone has that to hand that'd be useful!
 
Having been down there this afternoon, I can at least confirm that my earlier theory was wrong.

It seems to sink into the floor further down in Robert's Passage, before the boulder you go over-or-under on the way to the Gour Chambers.
 
I looked on archive.org for you, on old versions of cavemaps.org, but unfortunately that survey was not archived. The new version on cavemaps.co.uk will hopefully be online soon. It was demonstrated to the CNCC meeting last Satrurday.
