Here's another photo which should be even easier.    Where is it?         $walesflag$

          Is it Bwa Ddu  (Black Arch), situated between Tre-Arddur Bay and Rhoscolyn?

Good try Gwynant but it's neither of the two sea arches in Rhoscolyn, so where is it?

            Going on the assumption that you took the photo yesterday along with the South Stack one Hugo, did you follow the Coastal Path around towards Tre-arddur Bay as I think there is a sea arch on the southern corner of the headland just before you head north into Porth Dafarch but I don't know it's name. I think the headland area is known as Penrhos  Feilw.

Good logic Gwynant and spot on.       &well&

I hadn't seen the sea arch until yesterday but my friends who had took me to it had.   It's a stack and on the O/S map it's listed as a fort but in my walking book it's listed as Dinas which means the same in Welsh.   
What a beautiful hot day for doing that walk, shorts, T shirt and no rucksack    $good$

That must have been an educated guess or a very jammy one ME   but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.     $good$
 Hope that you enjoyed the railway on Saturday.
