Honister Slate Mine is England’s last working slate mine and one of the Lake District’s most unique destinations.
High on Fleetwith Pike, we’ve been producing Honister Green Slate for centuries – a durable, beautiful material formed over 450 million years ago and prized for its rich colour, heritage and strength. Still family-run, our team continues to mine, shape and share this remarkable stone using skills passed down through generations.
But Honister is more than a mine.
Visitors come to step inside history, explore our underground world and take on guided adventure experiences through the same mountain tunnels once used by miners. Above ground, they’ll find a walkers’ café, slate shop and one of the most scenic spots in the Lakes.
From heritage to handcrafted slate, storytelling to adrenaline – it all starts at Honister.
