What is the under ground temperature of the cheddar caves in somerset?
By Metereological Office web-site the mean annual temperature for Somerset is about 10ºC. The caves' interior air temperatures will be close to this, maybe slightly lower, as major caves generally stabilise at the mean air temperature outside them. It's not a hard-and-fast rule but near enough for most caves. Further research confirmed this, and revealed that the caves' steady temperature and even humidity mean cheese matures very happily in them. Cheddar Cheese, naturally. (Wookey Hole, a few miles from Cheddar, is also used for cheese-maturing.) I have a personal interest in this, being actively involved in exploring the caves feeding the Cheddar Caves. Our particular site can be very chilly thanks to the draught that is luring us on. I don't know the actual temperature there though, and of course we are susceptible to wind-chill.

How was Cheddar Gorge made?
Cheddar Gorge was made millions of years ago - amazingly enough, it began as a tropical reef. Fish bones, shells and other debris was deposited on the sea floor and because it was so deep down in the ocean, these sediments compressed, forming a sedimentary rock called limestone. Over many, many more years, the plates on either side moved inwards together, folding the sediments on the sea bed. During the ice age, glacial water froze in the cracks in the limestone. This made the rock impermeable - allowing water to flow over the top of it. As ice nearer the top melted, it carved into the ice and formed a river, but the ice underneath that was deeper down remained frozen. The water scraped away and eroded the rock and ice to create a valley as underground, the ice was still frozen. As the climate warmed, the ice deeper down melted, and the limestone became permeable. The river flowed underground, carving caves. The slightly acidic rain reacted with the alkaline limestone and dissolved it, and caves are still being created today. The water disappeared underground, and Cheddar Gorge remains a dry valley to this day.
