Field Visit (24 April 2008)
NJ 9540 0543 Torry Quay Light Tower (ASMR NJ90NE 143), date unclear. Recorded as a standing structure, but
no details were available and it was not found during the walkover survey. It may have been destroyed, or represent an error in the records.
NJ 9540 0543 Torry Quay Light Tower (ASMR NJ90NE 143), date unclear. As above.
NJ 9554 0542 Torry Quay (NJ90NE 7.14), 20th century. This overlies the Torry Timber Quay constructed in 1895 and includes the Texaco Quay built 1965–1972. The site includes the underlying remains and integrated structural elements. Fixtures have been listed separately (features 5, 7–8, 10–13, 15–16, 25). It may seal evidence of the settlements of Lower Torry and Old Torry Village (feature 14).
NJ 9554 0542 Old Torry Pier (ASMR NJ90NE 206), 17th century. Data from cartographic sources. Constructed 1611– 1612. It is unclear if anything survives of this structure.
