Siccar Point is a rocky promontory in the county of Berwickshire on the east coast of Scotland. It is famous in the history of geology for Hutton's Unconformity found in 1788, which James Hutton regarded as conclusive proof of his uniformitarian theory of geological development.

Small parking area, with information board, some 900m from Siccar Point. Then a walk along the cliff top via mainly just a grass field, no track and really no path. There's a step-stile fence to cross. The adjacent pedestrian gate is locked.
