Full Description

Remains of a Post-Medieval structure are visible on the beach at Slaughden on aerial photographs, at circa TM46405538. The remains are probably those of a structure that was originally one of a number to be found at Slaughden, including an inn, lifeboat station and warehouses. These can be seen on the first and second Ordnance Survey maps of circa 1884 and circa 1904, and have nearly all been lost to the sea. (S1-S5).
