Cateran Hole is quite a long (45m) cave set in the Gritstone of Cateran Hill in Northumberland. A shallow crater with cut steps lead down into an easy rift passage which ultimately chokes. It is reputed to have been a smugglers' hiding place[1], although locals claim that it once linked nearby Chillingham Castle with Hepburn.
