Orford Ness Lighthouse

We've had a fantastic and sunny day with the National Trust at Orford Ness.   You can only get to the 'island' by NT ferry and it's a haven for wildlife.   The lighthouse was built in 1925, but is now decommissioned and is doomed to crumbling into the North Sea, such a shame that a once very important building is now not in use.
To quote the NT handbook 'This is Suffolk's secret coast, only reached by NT  Ferry.   Wild, remote and exposed the 'island' contains the ruined remnants of a disturbing past.    Ranked among the most important shingle features in the world, rare and fragile wildlife thrives where weapons, including atomic bombs were once tested and perfected.
