• Not indicated on OS.
• Photo 1 shows the entrance looking along the geo from seaward NO 89923 90536 on 25 August 23.
• Photo 2 as photo 1, but from just outside the geo and tide level 2.3 m ACD.
• Photo 3 looking towards the entrance from about 2/3 of the way along the geo. The tide level was 2.7 m ACD when this was taken. It was possible to disembark and float the kayak most of the way to the entrance and then park it on a rock ledge on the right. See photo 5.
• Photo 4 looking inwards from just outside the entrance. The narrows at 30 m inside is clearly visible. The ceiling goes higher again (see photo 7) after the arch about half way along.
• Photo 5 looking out along the geo a little before relaunching. The tide was at 2.9 m ACD by this time.
• Photo 6 looking inward from the 0 m line.
• Photo 7 the ceiling taken from about 21 m inside. The cave line runs from top right (entrance direction) to just below mid left in this frame.
• Photo 8 looking inwards from 21 m inside. The narrows at 30 m are 2.1 m wide and floor to top of arch is 7.4 m. At 30 m, the floor is estimated to be 4.4 m above the level at the entrance.
• Photo 9 looking out towards the entrance from about 35 m inside. Note the walls which appear to have been abraded smooth by wave plus pebble action - presumably at a time when the sea level was quite a bit higher than it is now.
• Photo 10 shows the end of the cave at floor level.
• Photo 11 and the end looking up and right (NE). The high point is estimated to be 9.9 m higher than the floor level at the entrance.
