Site Comments:

Relict beach deposits form the exposed surface of a blow out of the shore face of the coastal dune. Close to the active face of the blow out is a dense patch of less fragmented shell and nearby a packed stone feature of about 0.5m diameter. The sediment between the packed stones is well carbonised but no ash remains. The stone feature is clearly a hearth.

Admin Comments:
this site is very difficult to access, the exposure is entirely due to wind erosion and probably occurred fairly recently. The position of the materials at the base of a substantial dune suggests they are quite old.
