DCA are currently in the process of Recapping Rowter Hole in the Castleton SSSI. The old cap is being removed, and a new cap will be constructed at the top of the shaft. The mine will have to be closed until this work is complete, we anticipate that this work will take one month so we would appreciate it if cavers can stay away until it's complete.

Many thanks to the group of cavers who have now finished the brand new lid on Rowter Pot. A mighty task done under winter conditions!
So, all's open now and you can help yourselves again once lambing is finished at the end of May.
Ask permission at Rowter Farm, be prepared to pay a small trespass fee and you may be asked for proof of insurence.
