Treak Cliff Cavern’s mining operations are thought to have begun between 1745 and 1750 and were known at the time as Miller’s Mine (it is without a doubt that one of these pioneering Blue John miners was named “Miller”), and it is widely assumed that this mine was the world’s first “Blue John Stone” mine.
Treak Cliff Cavern
The Harrison and Turner family have owned Treak Cliff Cavern for several generations.
The Treak Cliff Cavern is continuing to serve as trustees, caring about the cavern and ensuring its preservation for future generations.
