Description
Attractive section of quay wall to the rear of Clive Street. Built of random stone rubble. Broken by several outfall pipes some of which are surrounded by dressed stone. Some of the stone is loose and patches have previously been repaired with brick. The lower half is covered with sea weed. The original quay wall may survive behind an infilled timber jetty and stretch of concrete faced wall faced with vertical timbers.
