The way in and down to the cavern like gully with its small stream. Named Mermaid's Cave in 1882, also described as Mermaid's Glen 1884. A scene in Mad Max 3 was filmed here.
It's also where my other half played as a girl; see the pic of her in my photostream riding Tommy at Blackheath Riding School.
