description
Traditionally, Buttermans Bay was a regularly used anchorage. Today, despite enchroachment by moorings, it may still be possible to find space to drop the hook out of the navigation channel although it's a fair dinghy ride to the hard at Pin Mill (do not try to get ashore through the mud, it can be extremely dangerous). That said, whenever I've contemplated it, other people have beaten me to it and there's been no space
