Next to the main Glenbain footpath, 200 m down valley from the Glean Dubh footbridge, an intermittent stream sinks against a small outcrop in an obvious small depression. Digging reveled a cave passage but the instability of the entrance caused a collapse immediately following the diggers exiting the cave. The entrance was covered over with corrugated iron but this has disappeared over the years.
Alternate Names: None recorded.
Hydrographic Feeds: Surface stream east of L-shaped plantation
Hydrographic Resurgences: River Traligill
