NMRS Report: (30/08/2006 13:47:44)
NM96SE 16 c. 987 622
The following sites were surveyed in 2002 (boathouses) and 2003 (fish traps) as part of a wider project to study the maritime landscape of the Sound of Mull.
NM 987 622 Stone fish trap constructed at the eastern end of the beach around the mouth of the Sallachan river, and sheltered by Sallachan Point. There is extensive settlement in the area. The gap at the S end may be original, or may have been created by the outflow of water trapped on the beach inshore of the trap.
Report lodged with Highland SMR.
