Lodge Wood, Burrington Combe

Bath Swallet lies in the most northerly of a line of mostly dry swallet depressions running south-east of Mendip Lodge Wood on the northern flank of Blackdown.

An intensive digging campaign significantly extended the cave in 2001 and a connection with neighbouring Rod's Pot has created a sporting through trip with plenty of passage variety.

WARNING: The approach passage to Purple Pot is liable to flooding.
