Wallace's Cave (NAT)
OS 6" map (1970)
This cave is said to have been a hiding place of Sir William Wallace after the Battle of Falkirk. It is composed of a large pillar of rock, joining at the top with another piece of rock so as to form a roof. It is about 12' high, with a road running E-W through it. Situated by the side of the River Avon, it is almost covered by trees.
