Field Visit (1996)
Covered boathouse with slipway, roofed in 1946, but shown as roofless on the 1:10 000 map. May have been used as a lifeboat house. B17 7417-8 15/4/46.
Site recorded by GUARD during the Coastal Assessment Survey for Historic Scotland, 'The Firth of Forth from Dunbar to the Coast of Fife' 1996.
Field Visit (2013 - 2014)
A boathouse recorded at this location has since been demolished. A paved surface with a central channel running through it, presumably representing the interior floor is now all that remains. It is estimated that the building measured in the region of 20m by 8m. It stands close to a house which remains in occupation. It is shown roofed on 1946 and later AP's (B17 7417-8 15/4/46, B174 3088-90 12/8/47, B739 982-4 30/7/73).
