Its main features are remnants of a pit-house, storage area, and hearth, dating to c. 1000 BCE. Another area where stone tools were produced was also identified during excavations in 1984. The site has been known and of amateur and professional archaeological interest since at least the 1930s. It is located near the waterway's fall line and an estuarine area. [2]
