What is recorded here
Swildon's Hole Cavern is a limestone cave formed through dissolution processes typical of karst landscapes in the Mendip Hills. It has a long history of human use, including archaeological finds and associations with local folklore, and was once a popular target for early caving expeditions in the 19th century.
