"The name of the herring yard was well known in the port area. The sorting yard for herring imported from abroad, established in the second half of the 19th century, no longer existed after the First World War. Now (the 1930s) salt was unloaded at the old, brownish-black, dilapidated pier." From book "Uga Skulme", "Neputns", page.220
