Tilly Whim




As part of our survey of caves and old quarries, John, Austen and I visited Tilly Whim Caves at the week end.

Wearing full safety equipment we checked the conditions of the cave entrance and clearly despite being closed to the public since 1976, there have been many visitors to the caves.

So why did we go and have a look? Well due to the number of visitors we will before long have an incident in or close by so we have to have a good idea of what we face if we were to enter the complex. There has been some big cliff falls (hence the reason for the closure) so our advice is to not enter for safety reasons.
