Monument record MHG52735 - Dyke, Croft 119, Clachtoll

At this point a drystone dyke emerges from under the sand bank on the west side of the gully and continues north to the shore (Photos 58,59). This is the dyke recorded on modern mapping and the 1907 2nd edition OS map but not on the 1st edition. This gives a date of construction as bteween 1878 and 1907 and suggests that the windblow events which deposited sand in the gully to a depth of over 1m occurred post 1907. <1>
