The cave is notable for its impressive stalactites and stalagmites, as well as archaeological discoveries, including human remains and tools from the prehistoric period. These findings have provided valuable insights into early human life in Britain. Today, Gough’s Cave is a popular tourist attraction, offering guided tours that showcase its geological features and historical significance.
