The Blue John Cavern is steeped in history and old mining equipment is on view inside the cavern.
Guided tours are conducted throughout the cave system at short regular intervals.

See the Waterfall Cavern with it's multi-coloured dome... Visit Lord Mulgraves Dining Room where his Lordship entertained miners, and where fine veins of Blue John can be seen in their natural state in the limestone... Stand in the Variegated Cavern, 150 feet high and 30 feet wide!
