An abandoned dig into an occasional stream sink with a draught. Located 130 m north of Loch Mhaolach-coire and the same distance south-southwest of Belafonte Pot.
This promising site reached a depth of about 6 m in May 1998 then hit fractured bedrock. Opinions on continuing differed but attention and digging thereafter shifted to the Rana Hole excavation and has not returned.
