Traces of late Neolithic buildings can be seen at the top of this actively eroding cliff section at the Bay of Stove, Sanday, Orkney. The cliff is around 4m high and the archaeology at the top is around 1m deep and extends for 40+m. A very fine pestle macehead was found close to this spot in the 1930s - see 3d model: https://skfb.ly/Iu9Z.
