Welcome to Mizen Head - the most southwesternly point of Ireland. Like, you go there to see the old lighthouse, which couldn't be out further from the mainland.
Truly beautiful place even in a typical Irish downpour.
I'd have to say that some decisions made by committee are simply not good ones. Not sure how people didn't stop and think that building a cast iron lighthouse (the original lighthouse for Mizen Head) out on the open salty winds of Ireland was really a good idea.
That lighthouse is gone and all that remains is a concrete slab - lighthouse v2 is still kind of out there, but not Maine/Lobster lighthouse - more like bad 1940's track home with blinding light.
But again, you can't mess with the view.
