Summary
Two sluices and revetments.
Full description
Two sluices and revetments. Possibly related to PRN 3097. Sluices may belong to control system to retain water in the area of the medieval salt workings. There is a possibility that there is another barge cut running along the sea wall here. Two mounds survive, possibly all that remains of sea walls or earth banks. The area could also serve for docking or laying up of boats. <1>
