London's Public Stalactites
![London's Public Stalactites](https://www.shadyoldlady.com/uploadi/photos/subterranean/1520.jpg)
London's best public free stalactite show!
Location: Tottenham Court Road Underpass, London
Description: If you head for the south exit from Tottenham Court Road tube Station (stay right as you come out of the barriers) and go up the stairs you find yourself in a public subterranean wonder!
Like all good caves it's dank, dingy, and smells bad. But look up and you'll see hundreds of small and dripping calcium deposits called stalactites. The floor has their ugly cousin stalagmites and a very wet floor - watch yourself!
You eventually resurface on Charing Cross Road.
