Raised Beach Sea Cave. There are several shallow caves on this bit of the coast. During the period between the wars, and I think into the 1950s, some of them were inhabited by tramps, who built up walls at the entrance to provide some additional shelter from the elements.

Alternative Names: None recorded.
