| Description: | Shore, 2.4 km. north-east of Arbroath, Angus. Open cleft in cliff of Lower Old Red Sandstone due to branching fault forming line of weakness. As further erosion continues the arch will be breached and the mass to the left of the cleft will become an isolated sea stack similar to the one shown in C02496. Due to the combined nature of the jointing and the gently dipping strata the two stacks will be of very similar shape. |
