Lamberton Skerrs is towards the southernmost point on the east coast of Scotland.
He smuggled tea and was in partnership with a Swedish shipping line.
The cover for the operation was fishing but the building was actually later used as a fishery cottage.
A rusted net winch and storage caves built into the rocks are all that remains of the fishery.
The East Coast Main Line railway runs right by the location before passing over the border at Marshall Meadows Bay and stopping at Berwick-Upon-Tweed.
