The pier was originally constructed to serve the iron ore mining industry, reports Luxury Property News.
There is a gap from the mainland to the pier, and a bridge has been installed to link the two.
The pier spans approximately one acre (40,200sqm).
A video shows what the prospective new owner will be buying – with the agent calling it a “very unusual lot”.
Walking along the pier, stunning ocean views can be seen surrounding the site.
The end of the pier boasts panoramic views of the estuary and a peaceful spot to reflect and observe the nature around.
The property is available by auction with Auction House Cumbria on Thursday 5 September at the Halston Hotel in Carlisle, with a guide price of £5,000.
