Description

Morphology

The large chamber has two entrances that have been partly sealed by low stone walls. The floor-to-ceiling height varies from one to two meters fifty. The floor is covered with earth containing numerous badger droppings. The gallery that follows the crawlway, facing entrance n°2, has the form of a forced conduit about three meters wide. It has been filled to the ceiling with earth, leaving a small space in which to move.

Other details

The cave is located on the sandstone-carbonate terrain (K2a) of the geological map. The survey was carried out by Perramond Jean Pierre in 2008.
