Is now no longer a lighthouse and hasn't been for a number of years. Believe it has the title of Bird Sanctuary. If you keep backing a way from the photographers position for about 1000 metres you will come to a pub called the Briardene. I lived about 100 metres behind the pub. Cheers John S.

Used to sprint in the winter if the snow not too deep, that cold wind straight off the North Sea, just shivering, thinking about it. Cheers John S
