The name of the cottage is above the door, and the tall structure on this side of the door once contained a barograph for the use of fisherman and no doubt also the crews at the lifeboat station across the road. The date at the top of the barometer housing is 1859. See also Image] and Image The building seems to have been refurbished quite recently.
