Be a part of this exclusive event looking at historical graffiti inside Kents Cavern
The Raking Light team have spent the last 3 years identifying and recording historical graffiti throughout the cave system and researching exactly who the people that left it behind might be.
Linda Wilson (Raking Light) will be hosting a presentation all about their work and shedding light on the mysteries surrounding the people who left their mark in the cave, including a name with royal links.
After this, you’ll go around the cave in smaller groups to visit the prominent graffiti sites, where members of the Raking Light team will be waiting to show you their discoveries.
You'll have the option to ask questions and discuss findings in our cafe before the event concludes
