The lighthouse & Coast Guard Tower are still there but are now (I think) holiday lets. The row of cottages are also still there but at the end of that short road is now the entrance to the large clifftop car park and a cafe. |

The aerial masts next to the lighthouse were part of a wireless intercept station set up in WW1 by Colonel Richard Hippisley. In addition to evesdropping on German military wireless transmissions he also plotted the locations of the transmitters by direction finding. This process was used extensively in WW2 but this station was possibly the first or one of the first in the world. |
