The Caves are a 22 mile long series of tunnels carved in the hills under Chislehurst. Much of their long history, is clouded in mystery. In recent history, the chalk was used in lime burning and brick-making and roads for the building of London, also for flints for the tinderboxes and flintlock guns. In the First World War, the caves were used by Woolwich Arsenal to store high explosives. In the Second World War the caves were a safe refuge from Hitler’s bombing campaign
Tickets cost £20 for SCI/ RSC Members and their guests - tickets include tour fee, and buffet dinner.
