Cumberland Cavern
A Memory of Matlock Bath.
I remember the cabin at the entrance to to show cave with a stag's head over the door. I used to cut candles in half for the guide and put them in candle holders for the tourists. Sometimes I would go down to Jacobs well at the bottom of the cave and wait for the tourists to come down and give them half a candle to get back out with. I used to get a bottle of ice-cream soda and a packet of smiths crips as payment. I visit the underground parts of the cave via Wapping mine a couple of times a year, a nice nostalgic trip. Brilliant site you have.
