Crystal Cavern Shop at Stump Cross Caverns

A treasure trove of crystals, fossils, geodes and gemstone jewellery on Greenhow Hill.

About Crystal Cavern Shop at Stump Cross Caverns

The Crystal Cavern is the shop at Stump Cross Caverns, a show cave high on Greenhow Hill in the Yorkshire Dales. We’re family run, and we choose every piece ourselves. That means gem fairs in France and sourcing trips to Morocco, finding crystals you won’t see on the average high street.

Inside you’ll find crystals and geodes of every size, fossils, and a jewellery range built around the stones we love most. There’s something for a first pocket money purchase and something for a serious collector.

Our team know their stuff. Ask them what you’re holding, where it came from and what makes it unusual. You can crack your own geode or pan for gems in the sluice before you shop, too.
