    Hermit's cave dates back to the 14th century and features a 4 foot (1.2 m) high carved crucifixion on the wall and a niche for a lamp or candle. The crucifixion is carved so that the hermit could see it from his sleeping ledge on the west wall. The cave is secured with an iron railing and so can only be viewed from the exterior.
