Aerial view of Lighthouse - 1974Taken by Clem Watson from a Bristow's helicopter. He had done some design work from them without payment, and accepted a lift for himself and his wife to visit his father by chopper. They landed on the links.
The front factory building is visible at the top of the picture, and the current entrance to the Royal Hotel public bar is still a window at the time this was taken.

We used to have great fun sliding down the grass banks on a pice of cardboard!
