EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the unique scene of Peak Cavern in Castleton, Derbyshire, England during the 1930s. The image showcases a collection of charming cottages nestled at the entrance to the natural cavern, their whitewashed walls contrasting starkly against the dark, imposing entrance to the cavern. The entrance to Peak Cavern, also known as the 'Devil's Arse,' is a natural limestone cavern characterized by its large, circular, and ominous 'chimney' or 'stack' formation. The photograph reveals the cottages' cozy interiors, with smoke billowing from their chimneys, indicating the residents' reliance on coal as their primary fuel source for heating. The burning coal not only provided warmth but also contributed to the intriguing phenomena of the cavern's entrance, as the smoke appeared to seep into the natural limestone, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. The fossil-rich limestone cliffs surrounding Peak Cavern have attracted visitors for centuries, and the cottages at its entrance have served as a base for explorers and tourists alike. The image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the symbiotic relationship between the community and the natural wonder that has drawn people to this area for generations. Peak Cavern, with its mysterious allure and natural beauty, continues to captivate visitors today, making it a must-see destination in the picturesque village of Castleton and the stunning Peak District National Park in England.
