Back in my school days sixty or so years back, we went potholing at Lathkill dale. An ex pupil was a keen potholer and along with the geography teacher. we went to the cave where the river flows out from only during winter months! all the pupils with fathers who were miners bought safety helmets in for us all. We then went down the valley and went into some mines which are now blocked off! Very adventurous.I like watching your stuff especially Derbyshire items as I am a Derbyshire lad! Cromford and the like have always been our hang out!

Nice, I explored all there over 30 years ago as a lad, no fences or gates or restrictions, lots of mines to explore until there was some collapses and rescues, so they gated them up, also abseiled down the shaft and explored it before they fitted the stairs and grills, all overgrown back then everywhere, a lovely valley to explore! brings back memories.

That shaft at batemans house is part of a network of undergound passages now used by caving clubs and just behind the house is another entrance where they abseil down into the system. As you can see water levels are very high in the footage so the drier months are preferable. Lathkill head cave is also worth an explore at the top of the valley which is also a very long cave system which also gives access in the drier months. I recommend head torch for that one :)
