Pier and quays. C18 and C19, probably 1853; the pier end 1899. Some vertically-set rubble to earlier parts; some horizontally-coursed rubble; the pier is shallow-battered with vertical rubble except for round end of granite ashlar. The pier and quays at East Looe, together with those in West Looe (qv), enclose what was once an important commercial harbour which, at its peak of activity in the mid C19, was principally responsible for the export of ore and granite conveyed here by the Liskeard and Looe Railway.
