Hull Pot
Hull Pot
A large hole in the landscape, 300ft long, 60ft wide and 60ft deep. Hull Pot Beck comes into it as a waterfall after very heavy rain but most of the time enters lower down via fissures in the limestone.

The water then drains away through more fissures but extreme conditions have filled the pot with water in the past.
