Full Description
Recent high tides and stormy weather have partially exposed these structures. A curving stone wall with three coarses and an apparent pillar close by, extending archaeological layers comprising of red soils & midden material ( animal bone, shell) are present on both sides of this exposure. Unlike the nearby wheelhouse to the south east, these structures are located at beach level.
