Looking slightly north of east over the precarious ruins of the Kaim of Mathers castle atop a narrow rocky promontory, riven with passages and caves below, towards the restored former salmon fishing station at Rock Hall and then onwards to Milton Ness, the principal geographical feature of this grid square. The foreground is designated as an SSSI for its botanical interest and the background is a separate SSSI, designated for its geomorphological interest.
