Archaeology Notes

NM47NW 67 42227 79428

A rough slipway some 47m long and 5.5m wide has been cleared through the rocks littering the shore on the N of the harbour at Port Mor. At the NNW end, above the High Water Mark, there is a probable boat naust. U-shaped on plan, with its open end towards the sea, it forms a shallow depression measuring 7.5m from NNE to SSW by up to 4.9m across. Fragments of a stone wall can be seen at the S end of the WNW side.
