Cave

What is recorded here

This cave is described on older OS maps (1864 survey, 167 published 6 inch) as the Duchess Cove (Cove not Cave) not Lady Charlotte's Cave. Equally, Canmore spell it as Cave, so...
Duchesses Cave is a coastal cave, likely formed through wave action and coastal erosion along a limestone or sedimentary rock formation. The name and spelling variations suggest a possible historical or aristocratic association, though no specific folklore, archaeological finds, or detailed human history have been documented.
