White Scar Caves

White Scar Caves is a show cave in the civil parish of Ingleton, North Yorkshire, England, under Ingleborough in the Chapel-le-Dale valley of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

It is a solutional resurgence cave formed in Carboniferous limestone, some 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) long.

It was first explored in August 1923 by two amateur geologists, Christopher Long[1][2] and J.H.

Churchill, but there have been further discoveries since then, including "The Battlefield", one of the largest known cave chambers in Great Britain at 90 metres (300 ft) long.

The entrance is from the Ribblehead to Ingleton road on the west of Ingleborough; tours are run throughout the year.
