South-east entrance to the subterranean passage from the north side of Calder's Geo through the North Head of Calders geo. There is a second entrance immediately west at HU 20877 78670.
Based on a survey reported on BBC in 2014, the plan area is 5600 m2. It said it is 18 m tall - presumably above sea-level.
Alternative Names: None recorded.
Notes: Length estimated from straight line NW to SE NGRs + allowance for a second short passage at the SE entrances. Alt is a guesstimate and ACD.
