The rocky headland on the Southern shore of the Firth of Forth overlooks Hound Point and offers great views of the Forth bridges to the East. Named from a legend concerning the lords of nearby Barnbougle Castle.

Good place to take a brake near the beach with nice view at the bridges, hound point and Drum sands, after some great Dalmeny gravel track nearby.
