Approached by heading Northwards for several miles along the coast from Robin Hoods Bay. Watch out for the tides, as this location should only be attempted to get to on a retreating tide. Minerals can be found in both the large Septarian nodules and partially replacing the many fossilised tree limbs and roots found in the sandstone blocks from higher up in the cliffs
