An Andy Wylie picture showing his family picking winkles (whelks) at a barrier. Note sensible footwear and clothing.
Date is an estimate. Is it no. 4 barrier with Burray in the background?

Compare this with Picture No.300, it's more or less the reciprocal view. The splinter-proof bridge of the blockship on the left must be that little concrete blockhouse currently disappearing way back in the dunes - an indication of how deep the sand is there!
