Small sink acting as overflow sink from seasonally dry riverbed southeast of Storm Cave. Surface water crosses boggy ground and usually trickles into a narrow rocky channel before disappearing into a boulder choke. In extreme wet weather this floodwater pours in and re-emerges in the entrance passages of Storm Cave.
Alternate Names: None recorded.
Notes: In extreme flood conditions the whole area is underwater.
Some rocks have been removed from the entrance to investigate if there is more passage but no serious digging as the entrance is surrounded by loose boulders.
Hydrographic Feeds: Cuil Dubh Sinks
Hydrographic Resurgences: River Traligill via Storm Cave
