Thanks for the info Barry,
A couple of us are in Swaledale for the weekend next week and fancy
somewhere to visit
that's new to us. Hurst is a bit out of the way so didn't fancy the journey
unless underground
access was available. Now that I know that two places at least are
accessable I can,t wait.
Thanks very much again.
George Wybranski.
