An Un-named Slack above Castle Chamber
Castle Chamber, Bay Ness, Coast to Coast
Castle Chamber is a coastal rocky feature north of Robin Hood's Bay, between Bulmer Steel and Craze Naze. The Coast to Coast path edges past this feature on the cliff top, as it makes its way in the direction of Whitby Marina to Hawsker Bottoms. At this point the Coast to Coast path passes over an un-named Slack that channels water flowing from the rising land of Bay Ness. The Slack has to be crossed over. Not only is is wet, but it is very muddy and slippery. As the Path is close to the edge of the cliffs, extra care must be taken here. Castle chamber is east north east of Bay Ness and north of Robin Hood's Bay.
Un-named Slack and Waterfall
As the Un-named Slack reaches the cliff edge at Castle Chamber it produces a waterfall which can be made out when looking from the north. It is not visible when looking from the south.
