Pointless

Skies were clear today so no interesting clouds over the lighthouse.

At least it's Friday though.

I pass this rather pointless lighthouse now and then and wonder when and why it was built.

It seems too far from the sea. Maybe land has been reclaimed?

Now it stands by a back road looking rather forlorn.

It is a rather odd looking building.

Anybody out there know anything about it?

(Google maps link to where this is).
