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 - May 2026
Another busy month has passed where we have seen UBSS members travelling back and forth from Mendips to Wales (sometimes in the same packed weekend) - crawling our way through, before finally ascending out of exam season. We have been celebrating bank holidays, end of exams and summer soon to come through our annual traditions; digging for bones in Fishmonger’s Swallet, diving sumps, maintaining our beloved hut and prepping for summer expeditions!
