More about this scene
The Huer's House is identical today, even down to the granite railing posts. Sited up on the headland near the harbour, this is where the huer waited to spot incoming pilchard shoals. He would raise the alarm by crying 'heva! heva!', and would use signals to direct the fishing fleet to the shoal out in the bay.
