A former coastguard lookout known as Compass Point and built by the Acland family in 1840 of local sandstone, it is based on the Temple of Winds in Athens. It was moved to its current position in 1880. It is so called as it has points of the compass carved in each of its octagonal sides.
A fairly wide field of view so easy to get into shot. Coordinates are for the lookout. Refreshes every 7½ minutes according to the page source code.
