Summary[edit]

Description
English: Interior of Mother Ludlam's Cave, Moor Park Mother Ludlam's Cave is situated in Moor Park, near to Waverley Abbey. According to the 'Annals of Waverley Abbey', Mother Ludlam's Cave was excavated in the year 1216 by Brother Symon of Waverley Abbey when the original source of drinking water for the abbey, the Ludwell, ran dry. From at least the 17th century the cave has been associated with a witch called Mother Ludlam (also known as the White Witch of Waverley), who was supposed to have lived in the cave. In the late 17th century the cave was made into a grotto by Sir William Temple, with a paved floor, benches and iron drinking cups fastened by chains. Jonathan Swift, who worked as Temple's secretary, is reputed to have written parts of "The Tale of a Tub" in the cave.
