Description
The Stone Quay and the stone sea retaining wall, located between the Stone Quay and the ramp adjoining The Parade, were built in the early 19th century by William Morton Pitt to support the stone export and fishing industries. The structure is made of Purbeck Stone and features a curved end that projects into the sea. On the east side, there is a parapet made of ashlar, while the main structure consists of rubble. To the east, there is a projecting stone groyne. Above and next to the retaining wall, the remains of a stone tramway can still be seen.
