Royston Cave. St George or St Michael. |
.I
visited the weird and somewhat grisly underground cave in Royston (40
minutes drive or so from Cambridge) with my friend Ellie.
It's a dank and mysterious place.

Mysterious artists carved crude Christian figures into the stone.

I
think this is one of the weirdest places to visit in the Cambridge
area. If you like a mystery, if you like subterranean caverns, if you'd
like something adventurous to do with children, or if you've run out of
sights to see in Royston: this is the destination for you.
Thanks for reading and have a lovely day.
