5 m long sea cave on shore west of Scar Heugh near Barlocco Heugh.
Following abortive attempt in 2004 to walk along the shore from Orroland Lodge to the Black and White Caves of Barlocco (stopped by the tide), Ivan Young and Pete Ireson ascended the steep and overgrown coastal slope to a cliff top 'path' while Jim Salvona looped back along the shore to find an easier route. He discovered 'a short (5m) inconspicuous sea cave en route'. [Ivan Young]
Alternative Names: None recorded.
Notes: Discovered by Jim Salvona. Location not confirmed.
Orroland Lodge is a privately owned estate with a caravan park. The nearest public parking is further east at Rascarrel.
