Raghly Harbour — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Harbour, built c. 1840. Pier turning through 135 degrees to north-east, rubble stone slightly-battered quay walling, rubble stone sea wall, stone steps to water set at angle, grass and stone slab paving. Single-storey stone boathouse, built c. 1840, to north; pitched slate roof, concrete verge cappings; uncoursed rubble stone walling, squared flush quoins; segmental-headed door opening to slipway, dressed stone voussoirs. Various cut-limestone mooring posts throughout. Drumcliff Bay to south.

Designed by the engineer, Alexander Nimmo (1783-1832), this finely-crafted harbour displays a high degree of technical skill in its design and masonry construction and is a handsome representative of the small coastal fishing harbour typology. The harbour, although with some recent modifications, is well preserved through continuous use. Fine detailing, such as cut limestone steps and mooring posts, represent important original survivals. The simple and well-constructed boat house is also of considerable interest. The harbour structures make an attractive group along with the, now derelict, coastguard station to the north-west.
