Mummy and Lucy have come to Wookey Hole. Wookey Hole cave was formed through erosion of the
limestone hills by the
River Axe. Before emerging at Wookey Hole the water enters underground streams and passes through other caves such as
Swildon's Hole and
St Cuthbert's Swallet. After resurging, the waters of the River Axe are used in a handmade paper mill, the oldest extant in Britain, which began operations circa 1610, although a corn grinding mill operated there as early as 1086.
The touristification of
Wookey Hole has not been entirely sympathetic.

Lucy doesn't care though. She loves the Monkey.
