Five chalked labyrinths were discovered deep underground in 1979 in the ancient Merstham/Chaldon firestone mines, Surrey, UK. They are in what is known as the no.9 series, and likely date from the first half of the 18th century, together with other dated graffiti in the same vicinity. It is believed that they were drawn by visitors rather than miners. For more information see the Chaldon Labyrinths article on the website provided.

These labyrinths are located underground in an abandoned stone quarry and require the services of skilled cavers to guide visitors to the location. Under no circumstances consider trying to enter the mine system without expert guidance and the correct safety procedures.
Labyrinths range in size between 12 & 25 inches (0.30 to 0.62 metres)
Early 18th century – probably 1720’s?
