Summary of site:
Legacapple is the sink for the substantial stream flowing north east from Legalough. The stream drains into a large jumble of collapse boulders which have been the subject of numerous abortive digs. In another shake hole in the immediate vicinity (NGR H096349) the sound of flowing water can be heard.
