Full Description

Wooden stakes in a line on landward side and two curving arches on seaward side, possibly three structures, unable to draw polygon due to soft mud. The area is worth further investigation, and worked flint found within structure (1). Seen in 2004, although no finds were recovered, as the foreshore was covered in seaweed. (2)
