Begun March 2013, this project is producing a complete re-survey of this important section of the Peak-Speedwell system, actively exploring any leads we come across, whether mined or natural. Accessed by a flooded branch from the Far Canal, the system consists of pipe-workings, natural caverns and important archaeological evidence of unusual (for Castleton) sediment-mining techniques.
