In this very special tour, learn about Agatha Christie connections to Kents Cavern as you explore this fascinating cave system. There is little doubt that a young Agatha would have visited these impressive caves, as her father was a Fellow of the Natural History Society and even helped fund their excavation. Agatha later used them as inspiration for Hampsley Cavern in The Man in the Brown Suit, which turns 100 this year.

It seems likely that Agatha’s lifelong interest in archaeology has its roots in the cavern’s labyrinth of passages formed 2.5 million years ago. Learn all about the magnificent caves themselves, as well as their fascinating connection to the Queen of Crime in this truly underground event. Kents Cavern is located in the exclusive area of Wellswood, which is well worth exploring itself as part of your visit.
