Spelæological Society
The UBSS has been delving the depths of the subterranean world for over 100 years, and has a membership to reflect this. From the regular adventures into the underground playgrounds of the UK and abroad, to cave exploration and surveying at home, in many parts of Ireland, and in more far flung places like Romania or Thailand, to impending fame and fortune in the form of UBSS digs, photography, drunken table/pub/person traversing, archaeology, cave science, and huge bonfire parties at the Hut: UBSS members do them all.
UBSS Online Newsletter - July 2026
It’s been another busy speleo-themed month in UBSS, and we know it because we spent half of it chasing you around the country (and beyond) in hopes of a few write-ups for the newsletter. As ever, you pulled through in style, delivering tales from the depths of the Peaks, Mendips, Iceland and Wales, which included a spectacular film of OFD and photography art trips, as well as the normal chaos and faff of any trip… Proof, if any were needed, that this club never sits still for long. Whether you’re traveling to expedition, or relaxing in a pub somewhere, enjoy this issue celebrating caving trips, history, marriages, birthdays and photography- and head over to the puzzle corner to have a go at the cave-themed alphabet soup, you might even be in for a prize!
