Cave. Entrance squeeze between boulders at obvious flood rising 70 m W of rising of Uamh an Ard Achadh [High Pasture Cave]. Initial squeeze leads to short crawl & 2 m high chamber where running water audible. Hands & knees crawl leads on with oxbow on left to pool ending in chamber |& impenetrable slot.

Existence of Uamh an Ard Achadh stream proved by broken glass littered through cave. Little prospect of further extension.
