Clovelly Kop Cave
Length: 18m | Grade: 5C | Surveyed: 1995-04-15
Extension: 15m, Height: 3m
CK1 is a narrow slot in the side of a low ridge. The slot leads into a horizontal, washout chamber. To the north-west, the chamber leads to the bottom of a boulder choke. The top of this choke can be seen on the surface near the cave. A 4m long passage leads off the chamber to the south-east. At the end of the high section of the passage, the floor of the passage drops by nearly a metre, and the roof drops from 1.8m to 20cm above the floor. A stream flows down this low, narrow, rocky floored section.
Many cave crickets and spiders inhabited the cave, and the remains of a dassie skull were found at the end of the south-eastern passage.
