Hi all;

Firstly what on earth is this :lol:

My parents found it within a large flint mine in Sandwich, East Kent, accessed via a manhole I believe. Does anyone have a name for it?

regards;

Looks like Eastry Caves, though I have only visited once many years ago. The site was private then, and probably still is. Access via a trap door in a bank in the garden of a cottage.

Ah thanks;

Yes that'd be right, I'll scan the pics and add them to the correct mine within a few hours :D
