I am indeed a Scotsman on tour!

There were signs about that explained how the tide would come up and flood certain parts and I kept thinking, *how, we are forty odd feet above the water?! :OD

Must be the rising tides due to climate change which would then wipe out the town down below. maybe it was a storage cave and they threw the barrels over the edge into the water lol or used ropes. Would have been hard work being a smuggler there.

Hehe, that damn climate change. The story of it totally didn't add up. I suspect that they found them and decided to come up with a cool backstory so they could sell it to the tourists. They charged a small fortune to get in!
