Description
The Quay is a quay built in 1888 by Mr. J. C. Williams of Caerhays. It is constructed of stone rubble and features square-ended, battered rubble walls that decrease in height towards the land end. On the inner side, there is a stone stairway. At the top, on the outer side, there is a later addition of a stone rubble wall with rubble coping, serving as a windbreak.
