Small, upper intertidal cave facing SW or SW by W.
Alternative Names: None recorded.
Notes: Access: by sea E from the beach near parking for 2 cars at NH 80299 68978.
Altitude is ACD. Length is a visual guesstimate. See photo 1. View was a bit oblique so it could be significantly longer.
The NGR may need some adjustment. A context photo would be helpful.
Note that the BGS overlay has metasediment - but that overlay shows granite a few m to the NW and this appears to be part of that.
