The National Monuments Service's description
Listed in the SMR (1989) and classified 'Field wall(s) Possible'. Not included in the RMP (1995). Located close to the shoreline. A field worker in 1989 recorded a wall composed of loose boulders about three deep (Wth 1.5m; H 0.7m) which was used for drying seaweed. It was not located during the latest inspection (December 1994). This is a post-1700 AD monument.
