Summary

Artificial caves in Cornwall, UK

The underground lake in Carnglaze Caverns

Carnglaze Caverns consists of three man-made caverns formed as part of a slate quarry in the Loveny Valley, near the village of St Neot, Liskeard, Cornwall, England, UK.

The first of the caverns, the Rum Store, is so called because it was used by the Royal Navy during the Second World War to store its supply of rum. In 2001 it was converted into an auditorium with seating for 400.{{cite web |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090531032326/http://www.carnglaze.com/rum_store_1.0.htm

The lowest of the three caverns has a lake, which was where the cover image for Echo & the Bunnymen's LP Ocean Rain was shot.

The caverns have been used as an unusual concert venue,{{cite web |url-status=dead as well as bands such as Embrace (in 2004),{{cite web |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130505082724/http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Crafty-work-crystal-gazers/story-11374664-detail/story.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=5 May 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181117143757/https://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-28871190.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=17 November 2018
