Royston Cave
 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Royston Cave is unique in Europe. Believed to date from the 14th Century, it is a man-made cavern
in the shape of a beehive, with a small aperture at the top for ventilation. It's most remarkable
feature is an extensive range of wall carvings representing the Crucifixion,
the Holy Family and several saints, among them St Katherine, St Laurence and St Christopher. Other carvings are
less easily identified and some have been interpreted as possible pagan symbols.
