Whiteford Pill is shown skirting Berge Isle and branching into Burry Pill and Bennett Pill. The latter leads to the limestone quarries (NPRN 516022) at Tor Gro, the lime kiln and wharf at Landimore. A barrel post to the east of Berge Isle provides a navigation aid (NPRN 516003). Admiralty Sailing Directions dating to 1884 note '? a considerable range of burrows, which round Whiteford point, and terminates nearly two thirds of a mile southeastward in a bed of stone named Barge point, which is marked with a perch? the Burry stream winds out between the quarried limestone cliff, through the marsh, and close under barge point, the bordering sand and mud affording shelter for the stone lighters.' A complex of trackways leading from the Pill to the trackway running parallel to the quarry face is shown. Nothing now appears visible on the saltmarsh from modern aerial photographs.
