Description
The quay at Lamorna Cove, located in St Buryan, dates from the late 19th century and may be a remodelling of an earlier quay. It is constructed from dressed granite rubble that has been brought to course, with some concrete repairs. The quay has an irregular L-shaped plan, featuring one projecting arm on the seaward side, while the other sections are built against the cliff. On the landward side of the projecting quay, there are remains of granite steps.
