Restoration of "The Bung"

 

The Bung, Speedwell Cavern, summer 2010.

Brian Edmonds.

The first we heard of a problem at the Bung was in the TSG Chapel getting ready for a normal Peak trip. Ralph, key holder for the day, was buttonholed and the poor state of the pointing and masonry was discussed. As Ralph was going in Speedwell later to check on the condition of the JH choke we left it to him to assess the problem.

Peak District Rigging Guide

This guide covers all the worthwhile SRT trips in the Peak District. Most of these systems are now equipped with eco-hangers, the majority of which were installed by club members over a period of about 3 years. Profits from the guides were used initially to fund this project and since its completion sizeable donations have been made to DCRO.
The cost of the guide is £6.00 from CCPC (+50p postage) or from Hitch'n'Hike, Caving Supplies or Inglesport.
