This small cave by the lake
was used by the Duke of Portland in the 19th century to
moor his boat.
When Leslie Armstrong made
his initial exploration at the cave, he unfortunately used
explosives to remove the hard concrete floor which sealed
the softer cave-earth deposits. Although he records bone
fragments from this work nothing survives today. The location
of this cave with water running into it from the lake, led
both Armstrong and subsequent archaeologists to abandon
their work due to flooding.
