Field Visit (8 June 2015)
A stone setting of unknown purpose. Two parallel lines of stones set c. 1m apart extend from the shore edge inland for a distance of c. 4m. At the inland end the lines appear to converge slightly and terminate and join in a curved plan shape. At the seaward end it appears that the setting has been eroded in the past. Around 5m to the north are the remains of another wall, running parallel, but the stones are larger and it continues further inland.
