It is with deep regret that we will have to cancel the public tours that were planned for 5th and 6th April. Ticket holders will be contacted directly. Sorry.

The very rare pasqueflower is in full bloom on Therfield Heath, so if you are visiting the cave over the next few weeks, a walk to Church Hill is recommended !

This carving is thought to be a representation of Saint George. To celebrate his feast day the cave will be open for a special mid week tour on 23rd April. Please book online www.roystoncave.co.uk/events

There are many carvings of hearts within the cave. The shape we recognise today began to be seen in the 14th century, and is thought to be a variation of foliage which was originally used to symbolise fertility. Happy Valentines from Royston Cave ❤️

As this diagram shows, the cave isn't accessible to all. We can therefore bring the cave to you! Our talks include a 3D image of the cave, and we can bring the equipment needed to your group or society. Please check our website for more details.

Time to clear the grille vent that covers the hole that leads to the apex of the cave. This was not the original entrance but the place where the crown was damaged in the past. It now allows airflow into the cave. #gettingreadyforchristmas #glamourouswork

This is a great photo which shows how the cave is situated, I am sure many locals walk over it every day without realising !
