Access is via a 1.50 metre drop that leads into a sheltered chamber from which two galleries branch off. One, towards the NW, is short and obstructed by blocks. The other, towards the SE, is low and narrow in the first metres, slightly descending and widening in the final stretch, where there is an unexplored chimney.
