Full Description

The OS 2nd edn 25in map (1898) (1) shows a track running obliquely across the coastal cliffs , approached by a cutting at the top of the slope and linked by an unenclosed track to a large house approximately 300m to the N named Wentworth Lodge. On the 3rd edn map (1909) (2) the track appears to be truncated at its lower end and to have been replaced by a new route to the W leading more obliquely across the coastal slope (MDO32898).
