Apparently it is totally collapsed further in. The main manway behind the breeze block wall may be better if anyone has a sledge hammer

Yes mate, i believe so. The little room next to it would be where the miners take there tag from before entering.
I noticed from your pics that more timber has collapsed since i last went.
However, a non local maniac i know did go past both of the first collapses after that he said the whole lot is collapsed and all the timber is like rubber
