Late 18th-early 19th century. Drystone rubble, formed by linking natural rock island to shore by causeway/breakwater. Adjacent to N side of causeway on island ramped pier with single-storey flat-roofed store at head. Causeway and pier surfaced with irregular rubble slabs. To S of Causeway on mainland side sea wall of similar construction, may have been quay.
From its location and construction, Croig was evidently a point for the importation of the cattle in transit across the island to lowland markets. It is a well-preserved example of an historically important type.
