A seacave with a fairly large entrance (Photo 1), and which has a side entrance (Photo 2) on the N side near NG 30149 37051. I could not get close to either entrance at this stage of the tide because of large rocks. Appears to run NW.
Main entrance width approx 10m.
Alternate Names: None recorded.
Notes: Access: by sea; preferably near HW in low swell.
Length is a rough estimate based on the distance between entrance NGRs.
VR & width scaled from Photo 1, assuming cliff height is 20m above HW (barnacle line).
