    From this vantage point you have an uninterrupted view of St Catherine's Lighthouse and just to the west is Knowles Farm. A light started burning here in 1323 but the lighthouse was not built until 1838. As the original light emanated from a chapel, after the reformation this was no longer funded which led to a 300 year break in warning seafarers about this dangerous stretch of coastline.
