Where am I?  DCC > CAVING AND MINING

INTRODUCTION

The DCC was formed in about 1960 from the Northern Section of the Orpheus Caving Club.  Since that time, it has grown to a membership of about 100 at its peak although membership has dropped back to about 70 in recent years.  The members' interests range from pure caving for a sport through digging and surveying to mine excavation and exploration. 

To reflect the range of interests, this site has been built in two main parts covering the caving and the Alderley interests.  However as in the Club, there are strong links and common ground between the two sites.

We hope you enjoy your visit.

In this part of the website, you will find information about the Derbyshire Caving Club and its activities and links to other sites of related interest. 

Please feel free to comment on the site or send me any information that may add to the value of the site or knowledge about the DCC.
