A rocky point with a lighthouse and a keeper's house set beside it makes a classic pairing from the age when such stations were the only fixed guide for ships along an exposed coast. The keeper's house was rarely an afterthought: keepers and their families lived on site, often far from town, tending the lamp through storms and long nights and keeping logs of weather and passing vessels. Stations like this were typically built of stone or sturdy timber so they could withstand gales and salt spray. Look at how the tower and the dwelling sit together on the bare rock, a reminder of how isolated the work could be.
