A Lot of Rocks and a Lighthouse

Lune Estuary, originally uploaded by Bay Photographic.

I was contacted this week by a resident of Sunderland Point to tell me that some of my captions on Flickr were innaccurate. He pointed out that (amongst other errors) I had referred to a boat as a 'trawler' when it was, in fact, an ex-pleasure boat, and that I had called a building a 'Pilot's Cottage' when it had been used as an Inn.
He also gave me the benefit of some of his intimate knowledge of the personalities and families that lived and worked in the area. His comments were both fascinating, and a reminder of how a few words under a photograph can either inform or misinform, and add to or subtract from, the meaning of it.
All of which has shaken my confidence about captioning photographs to the extent that I am now going to confine myself to stating facts that I can prove beyond reasonable doubt.
Hence the caption above.
They may well, technically, be stones rather than rocks, but I am hoping to be allowed a little leeway.
