Cliffs at Redness Point, Whitehaven
I think this was taken from the North Pier lighthouse, but possibly from the West Pier Lighthouse. The quarry on the right was captioned 'Old Quarry' on the 1899 map, but not shown at all on the first edition, c.1870. '

England Coast Path
At this point the England Coast Path follows a minor road that runs along land previously occupied by railway tracks serving William Pit. The substantial stone abutment supported a bridge over the Cumbrian Coast Line (originally the Whitehaven Junction Railway) which carried a tubway and a standard gauge railway track leading from William Pit to a spoil heap on the sea shore.
The Cumbrian Coast Line runs between the metal palisade fences.

Redness Point, Whitehaven
This photo was taken near sunset, and the lighting suggests how the name of the cliff might have originated. The lane is part of the England Coast Path and is also the National Cycle Network Route 72.
