The figure of "Robin Hood"—who famously takes from the rich and gives to the poor—is by no means proven to be a historical figure, but has been retold over and over again for many centuries. He, his friends, and his exploits are set in the heart of the legendary "Sherwood Forest" that he made famous. This cave in the Derbyshire Dales, west of Sheffield, is also said to be associated with him as a place of refuge.

The Delf is a natural valley that runs south from the idyllic Peak District village of Eyam. A short way down it is Cucklet Delf (which I’ve also seen spelt ‘Cucklett’ or ‘Delph’), a beautiful limestone craglet that forms a cavern with two large arches.

Carlswark Cavern is a cave which has a sense of adventure about it. With an imposing but easy entrance, the cavern features walking, crawling, wet sections, stalagmites and stalactites and fossilised oysters beds.The entrance to Carlswark Cavern is a small chasm on the ground which looks pretty scary to the novice. First, you have to climb down into the chasm and follow a narrow tunnel down into the main cave. From here, you go forward on hands and knees until making your way into the main cave where you can stand up and gaze in fascination at the fossilised oyster beds which stretch along the roof of the cave.
