Description
Marble Head Quay is a quay built in 1783. It features vertically-set dry slatestone rubble walls, with some granite quoins. The structure comprises a rectangular walled area that includes loading bays on each side. The walls are battered, becoming progressively more inclined towards the foundation. All loading bays are blocked with vertically-set slatestone, except for one located on the north side of the west wall.
