A view up onto the lighthouse, taking in the steep concrete housing for the railway tracks leading down to the western landing stage. The cliffs here are so severe and weather-prone that the eastern landing, reached along similar tracks running across the picture about halfway up the visible grassed area, is the access point usually more suitable.
