Young cavers are led to safety A group of cavers, including eight teenagers, have been led to safety after becoming trapped by rising water, police said. North Yorkshire Police were called just before 1pm following reports that 11 people had become stuck in Lower Long Churn cave, near Selside in the Ingleton area, due to rising water. The group, which included eight teenagers and three adults from the Oldham area, had to remain in the cave until about 6pm when the water levels dropped sufficiently for rescuers to enter and bring them to safety. "Precautionary medical checks were carried out by paramedics and all those involved were declared fit and well," a police spokesman said. A respite centre was set up at Settle College where concerned family members gathered as they waited for the water levels to drop before the rescue effort could be carried out, the spokesman added source

They're forever flooding. I used to help run a pub up there, at the bottom of Ingleborough, and we were often used as Cave Rescue base. I miss the lads from Cave Rescue!! Steve Dangerous was lush
