A short news story about some anchor work performed recently in Rift Pot on the Ingleborough Allotment:

In summary, the two anchors at the top of the third pitch have been decommissioned owing to fracturing of the surrounding rock, and two new anchors installed in the rift down the middle of the passage to provide a safer alternative descent.

Our online route description has been updated accordingly.
