PREAMBLE

"At the eastern side of Broughton Bay, easily reached from Llangenith or Broughton Burrows in about 15—20 min. There are two sets of slabs about 50—60ft. above the beach affording a pleasant selection of short climbs of varying grades. No attempt at route classification has been made. A visit to Spritsail Tor cave with its obvious square-cut double entrance is interesting and worthwhile"[1]

Prissen's Tor is another name for Spritsail Tor. However, in Gower Peninsula (1970), these appear as two distinct places.
