The notch on Sule Skerry
There is a pronounced 'notch' south-west of the lighthouse. It is hardly noticeable on the OS 1:50,000 and 1:25,000 maps, but is much clearer if you use the interactive map at the largest scale. The landing point is below and to the left. Ahead is a large colony of gannets.
