British Cave Research Association Annual Review for 2019

Front cover (page i)

by John GUNN.
Poole's Cavern, Buxton, has long been famous for the many hyperalkaline speleothem deposits and their remarkable speed of growth. A drip logger was placed under one such drip on 20 December 2019 (left image) with the intention of downloading it in March. COVID intervened and a visit on 12 July showed the logger rendered inoperable by the accumulation of calcite which had formed a stalagmite that eventually joined with the stalactite (right and centre images).
