Cave, contains archaeological deposits and constructions.

Alternate Names: None recorded.

Notes: The coordinates given put this cave in the middle of a rocky foreshore. There are no obvious cave entrances on the aerial photographs of this area but some shadowed areas might be worth investigating. The location suggests a littoral cave which is an unlikely site for archaeological remains. [Further investigation of the original survey notes is needed].
