No trace of kitchen-midden material was found in the area of NF 936 829. Numerous pieces of broken ground where the sand has been exposed, close to the shore, contain small deposits of shells, but no pottery or animal bones were noted. There are several irregularly shaped, grass-covered, stony mounds in the area around 936 832, which could possibly be the remains of enclosures.
