Description

The Old Customs Post is a square, single-storey building that is built against a cliff face on one side, while the other three sides are constructed of local rubble. It has a flat cement roof. The openings feature segmental-arched stone heads, including a single entrance doorway on the seaward-facing side and a single window on the right return. As of June 1998, the building is in poor condition. Inside, it has a barrel vaulted ceiling made of red brick.
