I would rule the possibility that it was a WW2 lookout spot out, the article states that there was some beer cans found - some of which were quite
fresh.
You wouldn't spend time and effort tunneling into a mountain for a lookout spot when you come simply sit on the top of it with a pair of binoculars.
Also, if it was a lookout point or similiar then there would be some sort of record of it somewhere and I'm almost certain that the locals and people
like the lifeboat crews etc would definately already know about its existance.
Seems very strange to me however, whatever it was used for. The most likely explanation I can think of is that it was used as a place to carry out
some type of ritual.
"It's been well made - it's been cemented into the cliffs, sealed round the entrance hatch, the rope ladder's tied down with eye-bolts, so
it's been professionally done.
I doubt tramps or kids had access to the equipment needed to tie the ladder down etc As mentioned above, they said its been done "professionally"
Very, very intriguing
