Impressive landmark on the northern approach to Hunstanton.

Now self catering accommodation, the lighthouse at Old Hunstanton sits atop the highest point of Hunstanton Cliffs and was used to guide ships into The Wash. Built in 1840 to replace a previous structure from the 17th century. Before the lighthouses, it is thought that a light was displayed in St Edmund's Chapel, the ruins of which are next door.

The Old Hunstanton Lighthouse is a truly iconic building on the cliffs between Hunstanton and Old Hunstanton. The current lighthouse was built in 1840, however, there has been a lighthouse on the site since 1665. The lighthouse isn't open to the public but makes for a rather memorable holiday let accommodation. More details: norfolkcoastholidaycottages.co.uk/the-lighthouse-old-hunstanton

Worth a look

The chapel, now in ruins, was erected in 1272 in memory of St Edmund who landed at Hunstanton in 855 to be crowned King of East Anglia. He led an army against Viking invaders but was defeated, captured and martyred. He became the first patron saint of England.

Originally built as a Marconi Wireless Station back in 1906, the Coastguard Lookout played an important part in both World Wars, intercepting German radio transmissions and tracing the German fleet. The Second World War saw the building continue as a signal station and was visited by his Majesty King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1943, together with Princesses Elizabeth (Queen Elizabeth II) and Margaret, who spent time with the Coastguard and all four signed their royal insignias in the coastguard’s log book. This is an event remembered by a proudly-displayed commemmorative plaque on the side of the building.

礼拝堂 この礼拝堂は、東アングリア人の殉教王であり、かつてイングランドの守護聖人であった人物を記念して1272年に建てられました。 聖エドマンドとハンスタンストン エドマンドはウッフィング家（古英語で狼）に生まれ、ザクセンで青春時代を過ごしました。 855年にハンスタンストンの崖のすぐ下に戻ってきたと言われています。その後まもなく14歳で王になりました。セトフォードでのヴァイキングとの戦いの後、彼はキリスト教信仰を捨てず、デーン法の下で生きることを拒否し、殉教しました。伝説によれば、彼の支持者は遺体と頭を再結合させる場所を探しました。彼らは声を聞き、王の頭が無傷で狼によって運ばれているのを発見しました。
