Cave Notes: County Clare, Ireland (UBSS Proceedings v.21(1))

Abstract: Two new finds were made during the Society's annual visit to Co. Clare in 1997. These were: an additional inlet to Branch Passage Gallery in Poulnagollum and an extension to the main stream passage in Poulnagree. These two passages are described and some comments made on their geomorphic history. The inlet to Poulnagollum is a short passage fed purely by percolation water. The streamway extension, beyond Sump 1, in Poulnagree is a perched, strike controlled passage and may be related to the unexplored passage that feeds the Inlet Sump.
