Just how easy it is to work Permian sandstone is well illustrated by 'Dr McCredy's bath' - a long, deep bath carved out of sandstone on the foreshore at Corrie around 200 years ago. Dr McCredy, a resident of Corrie, presumably enjoyed sea-water baths - his permanent memorial on the foreshore at Corrie fills up as the tide comes in.
