One of a series of caves and tunnels looking out to sea.  This one was immediately next to the place where the camp roadstill is closest to the ridge line.  The short tunnel leading into this chamber, probably a Japnese observation post, was only a few yards long.

The remains of the tunnel. Some months earlier, when Andrew Suddaby explored the cave, workmen were there inspecting the roof which was thoght to be unsafe. So it had been demolished by the time Nigel arrived.
