HY50NE 29 5594 0801

On the E side of Swarta Geo, a cliff-promontory some 10m in height, indeterminate remains of turf banks with some stonework are visible in the cliff-section. They may be remains of an old quoy formed against the outer side of the former shoreline dyke, which here runs parallel with, and some 20m inland from, the general line of the cliffs.

K A Steedman 1980; RCAHMS 1987, visited June 1986.
