Rubber Duck Caving Clubgret

The Rubber Duck Caving Club was established in 1975 under the name of Crown Caving and Potholing Club as it originated from the late Crown Wallpaper social club in Bredbury. We changed the name when we started meeting in one of our local pubs and took the landlord on a trip, who insisted on taking a rubber duck with him and to have his photo taken swimming in the sump at the bottom of the cave with it to prove that he had been. Anyway, it has got us recognition nation wide ever since. We have always been one of the more active small caving clubs, with trips to Derbyshire, Yorkshire, North & South Wales, The Mendips, Ireland and the beautiful Vercors region of Southern France.
