United Cavers Exploration Team Test

The enclosed information is for historical interest only as the CAL scheme ended on 20th November 2022. That scheme allowed registered and experienced mine explorers to visit this and other listed mines without fear of prosecution by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). The scheme worked well for 8 years with benefits for both NRW and mine-explorers, so it was hard to understand their change of heart - other than in recent years they have been extremely against any underground exploration in both mines and caves.

Copies of the original documents are listed below. Please note that when the mine was within the agreement then there were some inspections of the in-situ safety lines and these were maintained on an ad-hoc basis. This has not been the case for the last 3 years and so they may have deteriorated and new hazards may be present. Keep safe and keep a low profile.
