Yes, it's an unmanned lighthouse.Been there about 30 years.

Gilbert O'Sullivan once made a video there ("Alone Again Naturally" I think), shown on TOTP.

I always used to wonder what that was when I lived down there!

 

[oldboyroy]

Lighthouses normally warn of rocks or harbors, what is that doing? Looks to be in the middle of the sea
