The new breakwater!

After many years of negotiation and planning, the big news in the village is that the construction of the long-awaited breakwater is complete. For more than a century and a half, mariners have found safe harbour in Meldrum Bay, and this improvement provides for a safer and more secure harbour for more boats in all weather conditions.

During last summer, the project involved a regular procession of trucks during the week days, bringing stone from the near-by Lafarge Quarry for placement on the new breakwater. Come out and see the excitement!
