Summary

Description
English: Trinity House obelisk, Portland Bill This seven metre tall white stone obelisk was built in 1844 at the southern tip of Portland Bill as a warning of a low shelf of rock extending 30 metres south into the sea. The obelisk was saved from threatened demolition in 2002. It is now accompanied by two 'talking telescopes' - one is being used by the people to the left of the obelisk. I have no idea what the telescopes have to say for themselves.
