Have recently gotten landowners permission to dig an area in Weardale, the main (recorded) caves are known as Low Bishopley caves (Moldywarps 12 i think). There are 4 recorded caves there and I was going to have a crack at the back of the first two to start with as theres the possibility of a through trip to LB4.
The bit I'm confused about is that in LB1 the choke is mostly sandy dirt and glacial till which is what I expected but at the back of 2 the choke appears to be gravel with a large amount of broken ceramic pipe mixed in, some large bits of pipe too.
I should also mention that both are substantial passages but both only about 20 meters before becoming choked.
