NARRATIVE
ON PRINT - Further
eastward, a little way, from a huge projecting
mass of rock of striking appearance, called
the Horseshoe Cliffs, there is a high stack
or pillar of rock, called the Devil's Head,
and sometimes the Pint Stoup. The space between
the cliff and the stack is called Duncan's
Door. At a certain point in the offing it
has the appearance of an open door, and is
a landmark to fishermen and mariners. Grass,
as fresh and beautiful as any on the braes,
grows on the top of this otherwise bare red
rock. (Notes by George Hay, 1883)
