Cheddar Village, Caves & Gorge - Cheddar - Somerset

Cheddar Village, Caves & Gorge Cheddars distinguishing feature is the natural phenomenon of Britain’s largest Gorge. The Cheddar Yeo in Gough’s Cave is Britain’s biggest underground river, and the Gorge Cliffs are Britain’s highest inland limestone cliffs. Gough’s Cave is an internationally famous archeological site because of its Late Upper Paleolithic finds (12-13,000 years old) and contained Britain’s oldest complete skeleton (9,000 years old). The Gorge itself lies within the Mendip Hills The Village of Cheddar has a long and ancient history, having been an important Roman and Saxon Centre. Cheddar’s Kings of Wessex Academy occupies the historical site of an Anglo Saxon Palace, with the ruins of the 13th century chapel of St. Columbanus still visible today. As early as 1130 AD, the beauty of the Gorge was recognised as one of the “Four wonders of England”. Historically, Cheddar’s source of wealth was farming and cheese making for which it was famous as early as 1170 AD. Cheese is still made in Cheddar today and some is stored in the caves to mature. Hauntings- The empty Coxes Mill Hotel is reputed to have several tragic hauntings there is a phantom woman who sits by the bar, small items have been known to move themselves to new locations, orbs have been seen as well as an audible voice. The room overlooking the millpond had been a scene of a great tragedy, story goes that a women came upon the room to find her husband with another woman, in such distress she threw herself from the balcony into the waters below and drowned. (For details see separate post on this page) Several pubs are reported to be haunted - Gardners Arms, White Hart and the Kings Head, although exact details are not known at this point of writing.. Also the supermarket is said to have activity too, one report on Paranormal Database states in the car park close to Tesco 14 June 2018, 17:30, just after parking and walking towards the grocery store, this witness found himself around ten steps behind two young people. The couple turned and walked through what the witness thought was a side door to the shop, but as he approached, realised that the section of wall was solid with no doorway. Several other places in the village are said to have paranormal activity too.. At the top of the gorge - on the B3135 between Green Ore & Cheddar, a witness reported driving by a figure standing on the side of the road; just after passing, the vehicle cut out. While the car lights remained on, they were quite dim, and the vehicle would not turn over. After several minutes trying the engine, the figure appeared again, and moved into nearby woodland. The vehicle suddenly started, and the witness quickly drove away. Can you add to the Cheddar ghost stories? Source - Paranormal Database Photos - Somerset Photography

Es curioso cómo, cuando las cosas parecen más oscuras, los momentos de belleza se presentan en los lugares más inesperados / It's funny how, when things seem the darkest, moments of beauty present themselves in the most unexpected places. #cheddar #cheddargorge #cheddarhiking #hike #hiking #caminar #somerset #igerssomerset #travel #traveluk #uk #fotodeldia #fotografia #quotestoliveby #guy #invierno #igers #picoftheday (at Cheddar Gorge) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn9MOsMMHC3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
