At Lowland Point, you can experience a remarkably complex archaeological landscape with settlements and field systems ranging in date from the Mesolithic to the early medieval period. You can also see The Manacles, which extends from Porthoustock to Lowland Point. This granite reef, close to a major shipping route, has been responsible for hundreds of shipwrecks in the past.
