No - looking closely, only the farm yards and buildings are excluded - the shakehole is quite clearly in the field shaded purple.
Permission might be hard to gain for a proper dig, because its so overlooked by very touristy areas. You;d have the national trust, peak park, farmer, and english nature to deal with.
Still - when the weather gets a whole lot wetter, I'll have a word with the farmer and see if I can have a quick recce.
