Get ready to explore the hidden wonders of Bath Stone Mine on an unforgettable underground adventure!

The visit will begin with a full safety induction, covering all necessary safety information before the group enters the mine.

Following the induction, we will venture underground for a guided tour of Stoke Hill Mine, learning more about Bath Stone, its extraction and its important role in the architectural character of Bath and the surrounding area.

A light lunch will be provided following the tour.

If you have any specific dietary requirements, please let us know when booking.

Bath Stone has played a defining role in the architectural identity of Bath for centuries. This visit provides a rare opportunity to explore the source of this distinctive local material and gain a greater understanding of its extraction and use.
