There are a few more about both up, and down the valley.
Some seem to have been blocked over the years.

Edit: I think this is the one that goes nowhere.

Edit2: Tower is just up the road, may be worth some recent pics?

Yup - this one goes no-where.

not for a full day mate. Dinas Silica no4 (near Dinas Rock car park) needs diving if you fancy it - large shaft on left once you hit main flood area. Be very awear of it. See PM for contact info. Chalybeate is nice, very wet tho. Dinas no3 is deep water and is near Angel Pub down from Dinas Rock. Dinas Silica Upper has some interesting new additions inside! goodness knows how they got there tho!!

Look forward to :thumbup: meet 🙂

Love it . . . 🙂
