;Cave description

; From the end of the airy traverse, Magic Glue descends 32m via a deviation. The 
; pitch is drippy in dry weather. At the foot, there are two ways on. A phreatic 
; passage with a floor trench (traverse line needed) heads west (QM A). To the 
; east is a further drop with a very cold and draughty pitch head - the start
; of Inferno. A window to the north, accessible via a climb, may connect to this
; pitch (QM C).
;
; Inferno descends in three steps of 25, 15 and 25m to land at the bottom of a large
; chamber - Kraken. The chamber is approximately 75 x 30m and 15m high, and contains
; a ridge formed of large boulders covered in black mud across its centre. Ascending
; the boulder pile a continuation is visible in the SE corner, accessible via a pitch
; - this is the lower level of Kraken chamber. At the northeast end of the ridge, a
; traverse leads off to Anthemusa chamber. A second aven enters at the eastern end of
; the chamber (QM X).
