About Port Eynon Salt House
The surviving remains of the sixteenth century Port Eynon Salt House represent salt-collecting reservoirs and a boiling house. There are three stone lined chambers, with walls approximately one metre thick with stone-flagged floors set into the beach at the foot of a low cliff. The southern chamber is the largest chamber and was a seawater tank fed by a channel from lower down the beach. It has a pumping chamber in its north-western angle. (Port Eynon, Wales)
