Ouoygrew HY 4433 5065 HY45SW

On the low shoreline immediately W of Ouoygrew, and perceptible on the surface only as a slight rise, is an erosion-exposure of densely-packed midden material 1.5m thick. Some stonework is visible, including a fairly substantial drain with laid masonry side-walls. The midden is rich in fish bones; minor excavations in 1978 yielded a pin, pottery, and carbonised grain.
