Visit the home of the Ice Age hunter. Only 20 minutes’ drive from Sheffield or Doncaster, the gorge features the only authenticated Ice Age cave art in Britain.
Stone tools and remains of animals found in the caves by archaeologists provide evidence for a fascinating story of life during the last Ice Age between 50,000 and 10,000 years ago. The unique archaeology, geology, wildlife and fauna have resulted in Creswell Crags being one of the most protected sites in the UK. Visit the exhibition or book a cave tour.
