15 Above is a view from Castle Point down to the sandy beach which lies to the east of it beneath the cliffs of Barcloy Hill. I wanted a shot of Castle Point from Barcloy Hill and in getting there I passed where you get access down to the beach (second picture).
The third picture shows the view of Castle Point from Barcloy Hill. The sandy bay you see across the Rough Firth is Horse Isles Bay on the Almorness Peninsula. Beyond that again you can see Balcary Bay.
