Comprises one larger island and two smaller islets to the east as shown below. All three islands are connected at normal low tides by shingle spits and drying mudflats, however it is likely that stock did not cross these flats when the Dockyards were stocked with sheep as the two eastern islands have tussac and extensive stands of shrubby seablite. It is possible that at very low tides the group of three islands are connected to the larger Dockyard Islands north. Grazed intermittently until mid 1990s. (Ken Passfield). Note the easternmost of the Dockyard Islands shown on DOS sheet 5 can be considered to be a part of Broken Island as it is connected by a rocky ridge that dries below half tide.

Both tied islands have tussac cover so are unlikely to have been accessible to stock in the past. However in 2011, they appeared to have been recently grazed by sheep (Ross Chaloner), so it is possible that the shingle spits have increased in height, thus allowing stock to access the islands.

Previously un-named, Kate Island was referred to in FIDB 2008 as one of the "Kelp Point islets (4) (Whale Pt.)". The fourth islet referred to in FIDB 2008 is in fact an awash reef that lies 550m S of Kate Island. Named by Sir Harry Solomon as Kate Island after one of his grandchilden on purchase in 2008 (Roger Spink). FIDB 2008: Important for sealions. Petrels/shearwaters seen in vicinity March 1948 (Cecil Bertrand 1983 per Robin Woods). Lots of tussac. Surveyed 2009: rat infested. No evidence of breeding petrels or shearwaters (Passfield and Poncet 2009).
