On the bank of the creek, a round wooden feature with radiating spokes sits heavily covered in seaweed -maybe a vessel's wheel?. 3-5m from it are upright abraded wooden stakes. May indicate presence of vessel under the mud? It may just be a dump of material into the creek, but unable to get close enough through the mud for a detailed examination.(1)
