One large section of capstone still sits on two bits of upright, but the rest is all on the ground. You can see the slab on the ground fits exactly with the capstone above. What remains is basically a large jumble of stones on top of a mound. It was probably a very large dolmen with entry passage, but the stones have mostly broken into a heap.

Newly appointed Fisheries Officers in the mid 18th Century dismantled and destroyed the fish trap system. Then for almost a century, knowledge of this brilliant, ancient technology disappeared. But then the big earthquake of 1946 loosened the sand in the harbour and swept some out to sea. Thousands of stakes started popping up.

It has been speculated that this site was used as a pagan sanctuary. Several runes of unknown age can be seen in the rock. Two niches have been cut into the rock wall. According to local legends, the sacrificial knife lay in the smaller niche, while the bowl with which the priests collected the blood from the sacrificed animal lay in the bigger one. However there are several written records that in the 19th century a stonemason was commissioned to work the rock in order to boost tourism with the legend.
