A flagstaff is marked on the high point of the headland to the west of the lifeboat house on an historic chart. This appears to have been replaced by a square, two-storeyed lookout post or lighthouse in recent times. The walls of the ground floor of the structure are rubble stone, the upper floor is painted white. The lookout post is at the edge of the golf course.

Event and Historical Information:
The chart was published in 1893 compiled from surveys undertaken by Staff Cdr W E Archdeacon in 1889-92.
