Visited during fieldwork by SCAPE. Harbour, still in use, originally a small wharf built in the later 18th century that was protected by high-water rocks. It was then rebuilt in 1871 and 1884. There are two rubble-built piers and a concrete inner harbour, that to the north with a later extension and a curved bastion to the harbour entrance. The slipway is from the roadside, and there are sloping walls to the landward side of the harbour. There is an interesting wood-piled leading light.
