  15. Middle Scar Cave: sealed for years after its entrance collapsed, only recently reopened. Almost nobody knows about it.

    Gareth Williams and Kendal Caving Club were inside: wet, tight, and genuinely special. One of Ribblehead's least-known underground gems.

  29. Locals in Bloxham, Oxfordshire talked about tunnels beneath the village for generations. Most called it myth.

    Turns out it's real. A growing network of underground passages, one found by accident when a builder's garage footings gave way in March. Red deer bones inside. Pre-medieval.

    Turns out some legends are worth investigating!

  43. New from Gareth Williams: the Diccan Pot to Alum Pot exchange, and it might be his best film yet.

    One of the Dales' most demanding wet potholes. Constant spray, thundering water, and a finale at the bottom of Alum Pot that's hard to forget.

    Filmed with Kendal Caving Club.

    ⚠️ Experienced cavers only — consult the CNCC description before any trip.
