Douniefell with west entrance to Ship Hole

Image: © Nigel Feilden Taken: 27 Aug 2019

This is a nearly stack/island which is part of the intertidal area below Seacliff, Muchalls. The entry to Ship Hole - shown as a subterranean passage on the 1902 version of the 25 in/mile OS - about central, but in shadow. The top of Douniefell is a Canmore site 37225 'enclosure', undated so far. Image and Image show it from the south. It is a bit easier to spot in the latter, in which its shadow on the cliff to the east (this camera location) makes it easier to pick out. See also the oblique aerial view from the north on Canmore.
