Lower shore was very rich, with a thick algal turf growing on angular boulders, but the algae from the F. serratus zone upwards (excluding A. nodosum) were yellow and slimy - perhaps due to long hot summer?. This effect was not so pronounced elsewhere. NOTE: Substratum % data are converted from the original substratum 1-3 scoring system.

Relatively few species of algae but rich faunal diversity. Of particular note were M. senile, A. bifida, C. papposus and A. gelatinsoum - not normally found above LW mark. Polychaeta, Bryozoa and Ascidiacea were notably diverse but not sponges. Ungeshader (upstream) - shore wider, with boulders blanketed by fucoids except where there is freshwater run-off and muddy sand at LW. Shore fauna chiefly B. balanoides and M. edulis.

A gentler slope than the north side with, at ELW, a gravel flat about 200 m long and up to 50 m wide, with large and small boulders resting on it. Clean and very rich site. Upper shore is composed of cobbles passing down into an uninteresting middle shore with F. vesiculosus, A. nodosum and Littorina spp. The lower shore had a very rich F. serratus zone, passing down into an even richer extreme littoral fringe. The boulders supported a varied and dense turf of red algae including C. purpureum and P. rubens. Laminaria spp. grew on cobbles amongst the boulders and on M. modiolus in the gravel.

The rocks and boulders were covered with A. nodosum and at LW fringed by F. serratus and some L. digitata (cape form). There was an undergrowth of red algae, close search revealed that these were denser and more varied than at first apparent. C. filum rose from the mud. Dominant animals were E. nebulosa and ascidians including C. lepadiformis. One M rostrata, decorated with C. rubrum to resemble A. bifida, was found. Mollusca included many juvenile P. exigum.
