Forest of Dean Round Up

45 minute Lecture|Paul Taylor

Abstract

The Forest of Dean Caving Area is not the largest in the UK but it certainly punches well above its weight.
The discoveries at Redhouse Lane cave continue to dominate and without a doubt are spectacular. However, that's only part of what is going on in the area. There is always plenty of other things to report on.
