Full Description
Site of World War II anti-tank blocks. A double line of blocks is visible on RAF photographs taken in 1941, extending for about 250m along the shore. They have been removed, possibly to strengthen the small harbour to the northeast. Site visit in 2022 as part of the SCAPE Coastal Zone Assessment Survey noted that nothing was visible at their original location.
