Reed's Cave

Devon's only true troglobite collembolan Pseudosinella dobati is recorded from this cave.

People are generally not allowed to enter Reed's Cave, but some entries are permitted during the summer months.

Because of entry restrictions, the cave has become an important roosting site for greater horseshoe bats.

Near the entrance, there is a long crawl followed by a squeeze that leads to a grotto followed by Easter Chamber.

From here, some passages lead to the "little man" formation, which is directly below the tomb of the Cabell family.
