On the island of Okinoshima off the coast of Shikoku in the Uwa Sea are settlements situated on areas of flat ground secured out of steep terrain by stone walls. In Hirose, there remain stone walls built as windbreaks against typhoons and prevailing northwesterly winter winds. In Moshima, the stone windbreaks have been entirely replaced with concrete or block walls. The type of stone used on the island is Tertiary intrusive granite. The stonework is characterized by sharp corners, produced by stacking angularly cut stones at 90° angles to one another, and the walls are given a concave curvature when they exceed approximately two meters in height. In the case of long, high earth-retaining structures, stones are laid over the arched wall surface to increase strength. The stone walls on the island are in a typically Honshu style, the exemplar of which is Anō-zumi. Across the island, hidana are built instead of verandas. These temporary structures, which are unique to the island, are made from bamboo or PVC pipes that extend out from the stone walls of homes. However, some also span roads. Hidana provide shelter against the winds that ascend the steep terrain, allowing best use to be made of the scarce land available on the island.
