Narrative

    • A narrow cave passage which provides access to Chamber B from the outside, although almost too narrow for human passage. It was excavated during the 1870's but this was soon stopped when discovered it could not be used by wheel barrows. This was allocated VA8 in LUAU 1995 survey (Quartermaine, J. 1995. Victoria and Albert Caves North Yorkshire: Archaeological Survey. Lancaster University Archaeological Unit. Lancaster)
