Halfway House (Ballygalley), NE Coast.

[Site list for year 1985]

Survey number: 555 Event number: 19850915/21 Date: 1985-09-15 GPS: 54.90500,-5.87300. Depth: 3.5 to 0.2 m. [ View map ]

Site Description: The transect site is opposite a hut on the northern side of a house, in turn to the north of the hotel, and runs across a boulder section of a mixed boulder-sand shore. It runs from an upper boulder/stone shore over a steep sandy slope which is narrow with scattered boulders, and then across a low level boulder causeway to an offshore boulder outcrop. The site is moderately exposed, dominated by patchy Fucus vesiculosus. The tide was poorer than might have been expected from the predicted tidal height.
