Cave/Mine at Stoney

[Stoney Boy]

Anyone know or had a look at the obvious entrance with fence in front of it at the hotel development?

 

[Pipster]

Nope, but been meaning to take a look! Almost did on Saturday, but ran out of time. Looks a decent size.

I had noticed it but didn’t get as far as taking a look into what it might be part off ,

I'd say Bossen Hole.

Na Bossen Hole is on the other (North) side of the road, up on the limestone ledge.

Looks interesting, needs surveying at least in case it gets lost.

Hey! if anyone has any questions about this mine, give me a message. I can't say anything more because of (reasons...) but I have a lot of info

Could well be Froghole Mine- Jim Rieuwerts recorded getting into that mine in the 1950s but couldn't fully explore due to lack of kit.

Hmm, One that Markc of this parish missed when he compiled the SMD survey. Mind you, I helped him with the survey and never realised there was anything on the south side in that area.

I think the entrance may well have been blocked at that point - looks like the groundworks for the new hotel have opened it up.

 

[Katie]

Looks like the new development is planning make a feature of it, in their completed grounds.
