Cornwall. The pretty fishing village of Cadgwith is about 7 miles from Lizard Point, the southernmost point of England. About ¼ miles from the village along the coastal path is this collapsed cave. Its name apparently derives from when the weather is bad and the sea looks to be boiling within the cave the central boulder resembles an egg in a frying pan.

The arch has a span of about 25ft and a height of about 15ft.
