  • Abstract
    Four almost unknown records of Kentʹs Cavern (Torquay) from between 1750 and 1783 are discussed. A response to a questionnaire of C.1 750 refers to a description once attached but now lost; bats from the cave were used in 1775 by James Cornish in his experiments on hibernation; an anonymous reviser of the 8th edition of Defoeʹs Tour... added a footnote on the cave in 1778; and Polwhele had published anonymously in 1783 almost the same description as in his book of 1797.
