Death's Head Hole is a cave on Leck Fell, in Lancashire, England. Its entrance is a deep fenced shaft. It leads into Lost Johns' Cave, and is part of the Three Counties System, an cave system which spans the borders of Cumbria, Lancashire, and North Yorkshire. ==Description==
The entrance shaft descends some onto a loose boulder slope which leads down to a second pitch of into the Main Chamber, a large chamber with a waterfall entering at the east end. An excavated deep scaffolded shaft in the bottom corner of the chamber soon leads into a stream passage some long which terminates in a waterfall into the main Lost Johns' Master Cave about from its terminal sump. A climb up the waterfall in the Main Chamber enters East Passage, a well decorated phreatic passage with a misfit stream. It passes under an aven, and eventually lowers to a silted crawl after . The aven has been climbed for to a choked inlet. The stream enters East Passage from a low crawl after , called Dolphin Passage. This gets larger, and passes a small passage heading towards Eyeholes, before reaching a very wet section. This has been forced through to the bottom of Long Drop Cave, which is the source of the water.
Big Meanie (also called Hawthorn Pot and Nostril Pot) is another entrance into the system situated about due west of Death's Head Hole, in a shakehole by a kink in the wall. A tight rift leads directly onto a metre pitch which lands in a tall fissure passage. To the west, the passage terminates in a large chamber and a mud choke. To the east the passage divides, with one branch heading towards Eye Holes before becoming too tight, and the other passing through a dug-out constriction into a muddy crawl that finishes on a ledge above the floor of the Death's Head Main Chamber, opposite East Passage.
