Blackwaterfoot is a hamlet standing amid ancient remains. There is a footpath to the King's Cave, which starts from near the beach cutting through the golf course and along the hilltop. There is a standing stone that marks the grave of Fingal's daughter and there are also the remains of an old fort here. The path then leads down a steep cliff and across some rocks to Kings Cave. It was here that Robert the Bruce found inspiration from a simple spider, as it repeatedly struggled up its silken thread. There are three other caves here known as his Kitchen, Cellar and Stable, which may have been used by Fingal. Strangely enough, the cliffs here have basaltic pillars too, just like those on Staffa, the site of the famous Fingal's Cave.
