Great Masson Cavern

Great Masson Cavern

The Great Masson Cavern, Derbyshire, England, is one of the two caves at the Heights of Abraham. It is famous for no stalactites or stalagmites being able to form, as it is coated in a clay-like substance. However, it still has some rock formations such as the owl and the rabbit.
