An almost invisible rectangular entrance beneath blocks leads to a direct shaft of about twenty metres, opening onto a bulge with silted-up sides.
Description
Morphology
A rectangular entrance (1 m x 0.8 m), barely visible from the surface, opens beneath blocks in a canole a few metres deep and gives access to a direct shaft about twenty metres deep (0.7 m x 1.2 m). The arrival is in a bulge that cannot really be called a chamber.
Progression
On one side, a small crumbling slope ends at a small step choked with blocks and bones. On the other side, an extremely narrow window opens onto the next shaft, a little wider at the start but shallow. It narrows and ends choked with earth and blocks.
