It is really a great shame. All of the interesting places have locks on them. We walked for ages to get to this lighthouse at Fingal Head. At least the oldies walked for ages, I rode in Dad's backpack. The lighthouse is one of the tiny northern NSW ones. It is in a very interesting place where the rocks at the edge of the ocean are smaller versions of the big basalt collumns that you see in Ireland and Tassie. I figured a small lighthouse would welcome small visitors, but when I climbed up to open the door it had a big padlock and a "Keep Off" sign on it. And of course Mum read the riot act about sneaking off and climbing yet again.
