If you read the links Margaret sent you will see some of my posts on the subject. There never was a cave, why it was called as such is unknown, it was a hole in an old disused quarry face, looks like they've cut the face of the quarry further back reducing the size of the hole.
I remember the gamblers on the grassy area in front of the hole.
I used it many times in the early 1950's, by hanging a target up inside that hole to zero my rifle, made an excelent back stop for the bullets, that bunker was used during the last war, to house generators, you used to be able to see the concrete beds and anchor bolts.
Retlaw.
