Levitt Hagg Hole

Grid reference in NC1 538 009 is slightly out. More like SE 538 011. Mildly important as this puts it in a quarry where it has always been and not in a landscaped landfill site. Should allow future RIGS assessors to find it too.
 
Playoutside: Yes there is easy unrestricted access off a public footpath into the old quarry but there is not much too it - a short grovel to a choke straight ahead and a narrow rift left to a climb down and choke. Watch out for the locals with ratting dogs and rifles!

Pipster: The photo in the Doncaster Geodiversity Report is unfortunately not Levitt Hagg Hole. It is a man-made arch, and there are several similar further along the public footpath towards Conisborough. Levitt Hagg Hole is a natural feature at the base of a cliff in the old overgrown Levitt Hagg Quarry.
