View from the cliff above the Marble Quarry which is situated on the southern edge of Iona

This quarry opened in the 1700s but has been worked only sporadically. The last attempt to commerciallly mine the marble ending with the start of the Great War. It is a moderate, v muddy walk to get there but worth it for the views.
