Summary

A holloway running inland from Tilly Whim quarries.

Map

Type and Period (1)

Full Description

A substantial hollow way is shown on the OS 1st edn 25in map (1) and subsequent editions running NW for at least 350m up the coastal slope from the Tilly Whim quarries. It presumably developed from the transport of stone away from the quarries. The feature appears to end on a boundary dividing the cliff land but may originally have continued further inland.
