The bay previously had public toilets which were demolished in 2015 - with a new block set to be built.

To the south of the slipway is a curved concrete seawall protecting the shoreline, properties and boathouses.

In addition, there are four 100 ft groynes made of rock piles running out perpendicularly from the seawall into the bay.

After a number of landslips around the isle in the early 2000s slope reactivation measures were used to support to the shoreline and also due to coastal winds the sandy beach had depleted.

[7] Beach levels fell around a metre (3 ft) in the decade prior to 2007, this affected the seawall by exposing the foundations so work to correct this was undertaken.
