Beautiful walk from Skelwith bridge to Cathedral Caves

Cathedral Cave, also known as Cathedral Quarry, in the Lake District, was once a site of slate mining, particularly during the 19th century. Miners used drills and explosives to extract green slate, which was then used in the construction of local buildings. The quarry, now managed by the National Trust, features a large, 12-meter-high chamber, along with tunnels and other chambers, remnants of the mining operations. Langdale Caldera: A collapsed magma chamber that formed during intense volcanic activity. The caldera is filled with volcanic and sedimentary rocks, including tuff and breccia. #uk #caves #4k #ukadventure #ukwalks #lakedistrict
