Possible intertidal features of unknown date are visible as flattened linear structures on digital images derived from aerial photographs taken between 1999-2000 and in 2012, at Lympstone. The two parallel, northeast to southwest aligned structures, each measure approximately 32m and 47m in length and measure approximately 12m apart. The possible structures may represent the remains of a slipway or jetty, or may equally represent boat mooring chains. The structures were not visible on other aerial photographs or digital images made available to the survey.
