Archaeology Notes

NH55NE 174 5555 5768

Timber post alignment / Jetty.

A feature comprising 3 rows of timber posts, 10-15cm diameter, badly decaying and in-situ. Upstanding 0.1m to 0.5m. Rows 1m apart (3 off) nearest to creek edge, length is about 20m. Centre row is apparently sturdier and wider, spaced at c. 1m apart. At front edge posts set closely. At back much as centre row spacing. A row of 'mooning' posts extends some further 25m west up the creek, visible as c. 20cm diameter, 0.3m high above the Low Water Mark.

CFA/MORA Coastal Assessment Survey 1998.
