Description
The white 26-metre octagonal tower of godrevy lighthouse àwas made famous byàVirginia Woolfeàin her novel & x27;To the Lighthouse& x27;, though she places it elsewhere in the book. This, the focus of her inspiration, stands on the diminutive and rocky but prettyàGodrevy Island, at the centre of a circular grassy area enclosed by a low stone wall. Just over 3 miles out to sea in West Cornwallââ¬â¢s St Ives Bay, in stormy weather the island is exposed to the full fury of the Atlantic and it exists to warn passing vessels of the dangers of theàStones reefàwhich stretches from Godrevy island
