Carnglaze Caverns, Former slate mine and cave system in Liskeard, United Kingdom.

Carnglaze Caverns features three main chambers extending 150 meters into the hillside, including an underground lake filled with clear water at its lowest point.

During World War II, the Royal Navy utilized the first chamber of Carnglaze Caverns as a storage facility for rum supplies destined for their base at Devonport.

The transformed first chamber, known as The Rum Store, now functions as a 400-seat auditorium hosting concerts and performances throughout the year.

The caverns maintain a constant temperature of 10 degrees Celsius, requiring visitors to bring warm clothing and wear appropriate footwear for the underground passages.

The site combines underground exploration with a four-acre woodland garden featuring seasonal bluebells and an enchanted dell with marked walking trails.
