Description

Quay, built c.1860, extending into Cuan Chara Bheag [Carraveg Bay] comprising battered dry-stone granite blocks with large stone block surface (with eroded gaps). Single stone mooring post to north-west end. Adjacent to other more recent concrete quays to west and north-west.

Appraisal

This rather rudimentary but well built quay is reflective of the importance of the maritime industry to this area.
