Halliggye Fogou
historicThe largest and best-preserved fogou in Cornwall, Halliggye is an underground stone passage on the Trelowarren estate on the Lizard Peninsula. Fogous — from the Cornish word for cave — were built by Iron Age communities, possibly for storage or ritual use. Halliggye's main passage runs for over 54 feet and includes a side creep; the experience of entering it is genuinely otherworldly.

Today the site is a working deep space communications centre, and the visitor experience — including a tour of mission control — is an extraordinary collision of the prehistoric and the cosmic.
