Waterwheel Swallet Closed

Waterwheel has recently been broken into and the gate vandalised. The gate has been removed for repair/replacement and the entrance has been secured with a non-removable grill. Everyone will appreciate that it is not possible to leave the entrance unsecured due to the caves high profile location on a popular nature reserve. Repairs to the gate will be carried out as soon as possible. Until the gate is replaced the cave is not available for trips.

If anyone has any information on the persons responsible or would like further information, please contact me.

Information on access requirements for Mendip caves can be found in the Access Guide on the CSCC website.
