Creswell Crags- The Lake - a photo on Flickriver

            Walk in the footsteps of early humans and woolly mammoths through our dramatic gorge. Marvel at the Ice Age rock art still visible in our extraordinary caves. And enjoy exploring amongst the timeless beauty of our woodland, meadow, and reflective lake.

Creswell Crags in North Nottinghamshire is a limestone gorge honeycombed with caves and smaller fissures. Stone tools and remains of animals found in the caves by archaeologists provide evidence for a fascinating story of life during the last Ice Age between 50,000 and 10,000 years ago. Further evidence came to light in 2003 with the discovery of Britain’s only known Ice Age rock art.

It is also home to the biggest concentration of ‘witches’ marks’ found in British caves. "Apotropaic" marks were scribed into the cave surface as they were thought to keep evil spirits coming from the underworld. Hundreds of these protective marks, believed to be from the 17th and 18th Centuries, were discovered in 2018.
