Hartland Point - North Devon
Hartland Point is a 325 ft high rocky outcrop of land on the north-western tip of the Devon coast. The point marks the western limit, on the English side, of the Bristol Channel with the Atlantic Ocean continuing to the west. This location was known to the Romans as the "promontory of Hercules". The Hartland Point Lighthouse was built in 1874 under the direction of Sir James Douglass.
