20m. Immediately behind the lighthouse is a west facing pillar. Abseil to a narrow ledge from a carefully parked car on the cliff edge (check your handbrake!). Climb a short steep crack above the left side of the ledge and then finish more easily rightwards.

βeta: Tried this with a Daewoo but wasn’t convinced the engineering was sufficiently robust to bear the weight of my lardy behind and big wall rack, so on the hunt for a Mondeo and will then make my return.
