GARDEN AND SEA WALLS AND OUTBUILDING: garden ground to N and E of cottages enclosed to N and S by harl-pointed rubble walls and bounded to E by sea wall; lean-to rubble outbuilding in NW corner.
The very low-pitched roof of these cottages is an increasingly rare feature of Shetland's vernacular buildings. They form a picturesque group that forms an important focus in Walls due to their distinctive character and elevated situation presiding over the burn and harbour.
