Otter Hole
The resurgence visible beyond the two limestone garden walls is Otter Hole, one of the main sources of the River Wye (see also Image). It lies on private land and even reaching this point required minor trespass. A recent housing development, Otterhole Close (part of which can be seen in the background), takes its name from the cave. According to the booklet "Caves and Karst of the Peak District" the entrance is "backed by only 36m of tight, immature passage", indicating that the cave is (relatively) recent.

Wye Head
One of the main sources of the River Wye, this resurgence is next to a footpath and just below the B5059 (this picture is taken from the pavement). The water disappears from sight in Poole's Cavern and flows to this point through passages impenetrable to cavers.
