Phill, not hijacking your thread (!) but it reminded me about Barrowby Woods, the blob shows roughly the position of the hole you were looking for - it's up a slight rise to the right of the track and probably very overgrown now simmer's here. Sorry it's been so long, have had a lot to do, hardly had time to even look in on here this last week (I think its safe to jump into it.....)

I seem to remember that there was a shaft visible around the location that I’ve marked with the yellow spot. I only ever went into the woods from that corner and never ventured over towards the eastern side of the site so I don’ think that I’m confusing one with the other.

Had quite a good look round whilst we were there liits but didn't see anything on the eastern side - at least nothing exposed, though the ground was more level there. The Geo maps only show the one I found in the woods.
