The family holiday diary entry reads: “. . . went on to Knill's Monument . . . Wonderful views again with sun and not so grey as night before – lighthouse on Trevose Head easy to pick out and also Perranporth.” Trevose Head is 50 km distant, and not actually in the picture. The visible lighthouse is Godrevy, a mere 7.7 km away.
