Matsuǵashita-daiba was a battery emplacement site built by Obama Domain. No ruins remain, and the site is now that of a small shrine and old storehouses. It is located along the shore, now known as Ningyōnohama ('Mermaid Beach'), where there are statues of European-style mermaids (traditional Japanese 'people-fish' look very different). It was raining during my daiba tour. There were lots of old storehouses and old style town homes here. The thick windows shutters of the earth and stucco storehouses are designed to prevent fire damage to the goods within.
