NJ5767 : Natural arch near Redhythe Point

taken 6 years ago, near to Portsoy, Aberdeenshire, Scotland

Natural arch near Redhythe Point
Natural arch near Redhythe Point
This fine arch goes through a stack.
It appears to correspond to a couple of cave dots on some versions of the current OS and to be near the legend 'Bow Cave'. However it is not easy to reconcile this with the OS Namebook description under the parish of Fordyce, Banffshire: “A small fishure [sic] in cliff, terminating in a small cave, on the sea coast, near Redhythe Point.”
It is close to another arch, high up, on the same stack. NJ5767 : Natural arches near Redhythe Point shows both arches from the other, SE side.
