Would it be functional art? Its purpose "may" be to support the boardwalk?

We wondered the same, when along there. We wondered if it was modern artwork designed to frame the view???

But only half a frame due to the austerity measures
Re: Alvor Boardwalk : what are these ?
There are about 3 or 4 of these dotted around.....they look very similar to the gate post by the sliding barrier for the access road , half wondered if they had some spares so stuck them in the sand....they appear to have no obvious use.
