NH54NE 30 5937 4611

The remains of a tidal fish trap are recorded at NH 594 462.

[Wordsworth is presumably referring to the walling shown on OS 1:10000 map at NH 593 461].

J Wordsworth, 1992.

(NH 5937 4620) Extensive linear banks of large boulders covered in seaweed and extending for 200m whereupon it turns at right angles. On the shore side, 11 timber uprights are grouped as if for a small jetty. May be associated with the fish trap. Central to the fish trap is a small fresh water stream, probably just for attracting sea trout, etc. Well placed fish trap.

CFA/MORA Coastal Assessment Survey 1998.
