Located at the bottom of Callow Quarry in the settling pond. The blockhouse entrance leads to a vertical rift which is very unstable and very wet.

Alternative Names: None recorded.

Notes: Dug by ACG 1988 to 1991. Digging was abandoned since the settling pond was directly above and there were fears that the rift may flood.
