The geographical features and infrastructure recorded include exposed rock and/or rubble, sea walls, groynes, slipways, boat ramps, railways, vegetation, boat houses and/or bathing boxes, dressing sheds and/or toilets, other buildings and land subject to inundation. These details are taken from the plan’s legend.
