Crag features
Located immediately south of Funlands are extensive cliffs, with perfectly regular strata, which extend to Linney Head beneath the lookout station. There are two zawns, one small and one large, part way along and big terraces beneath, which are uncovered at most states of the tide.
A large rockfall occurred in 2007 at the north end of the walls and this area continues to be unstable. The remainder of the area provides mostly steep climbing on juggy walls.
