Caves of the North Bristol Outcrop

Abstract

The Mendips are the most well known caves in the South West Region but there are others areas of limestone in and around Bristol. This talk focuses on an outcrop of limestone north of Bristol which includes the cave "Fishmongers Swallet" which has been explored by HADES CC and UBSS over many years with unusual discoveries - both geological and archaeological.
