It really is a great place to visit. Nice bit of carving on the stone as well

I wouldn't mind a grid ref. on the 'caves' - would like to have a crawl through them. They do look like a mine rather than caves but, suspicious looking pillars (stoops) and flat roof in those photos.

Here you go my friend, directions from the roundabout at Torrance

CLICK HERE

From the roundabout, head along Balmore road and turn into Tower Road at the end of the town and follow it up the hill. The map should show you enough land features to figure out where it is.
And yes, they are mined/man made

Be careful, the embankment is extra slippy at this time of year. The waterfall is probably extra active too

I'll wait till times are less wet - and won't be going alone. I assume the area in question is to the east of point B ?
