• OS Namebook Forfarshire vol 80, p125: Seal's Cave - On the shore SE [South East] side of the parish; A Cave Situated South from the Cove Haven; it is dry at Low Water, and is said to have been formerly resorted to by Seals.
• Photo 1 shows the entrance in close context. The faulted joint shows quite clearly. Taken 10/9/21 by N Feilden.
• Photo 2 entrance from closer, on the same day, at 13:53 BST.
• Oldham, Tony, 2007, Caves of Scotland Bibliography, p. 63 incorrectly calls this 'Doo Cave'; which goes against the original definitive guide of Brodie (1904) in addition to every OS map, the latter of which have labels which unambiguously refer the last inlet before Cove Haven. (Iain Greig)
