The water-filled hollow in the foreground is about 3 m. in diameter and currently (1982) about 1.5 m. deep. The farmer has been tipping waste in it for about 15 years, but it keeps subsiding. Behind it is another much larger hollow and to the right, part of three intersecting hollows called corkscrew pits are visible. |
