RAW'S LEVEL    
           
Difficult to find collapsed adit on the moor above Old Gang Mill between Swaledale and Arkengarthdale.  Geographic co-ordinates and a global positioning (GPS) device useful here.  A clamber down into well-preserved tunnel leading to a partial collapse which is easily passable but I decided not to proceed further on my own without reinforcements.
