Flamborough Lighthouse.
A 2 mile walk along the cliff top to North landing, which is a small bay that is used to launch fishing cobles. They are put to sea by a combination of a small bulldozer, slightly modified for the purpose and a collection of ropes, pullies and logs.
The Lifeboat House (and, therefore, Lifeboat) isn't open to the public at North landing, but it does have a rather splendid slipway into the sea.
The walk takes you past the Flamborough Head Golf Course which itself occupies the site of a WWII radar station (part of the Chain Home system). Some leftovers from the war years can still be seen in the form of a couple of pill boxes one overgrown and both concreted closed.
