carved into the shoreline for the doctor to treat patients with salt water. It is tide fed, so as the tide comes in, the bath fills! (Credit - emilyinscotland)

Local lore attributes the "bath" to a Dr. McCredy (or McCreadie), an eccentric physician from the nearby village of Corrie. He reportedly carved it so he could enjoy therapeutic saltwater baths at high tide.
