    Since 1982 when I first sailed near the Needles I said to my wife that there was a mass of tunnels under that cliff . She never believed me . Thanks for sharing this .

      Many thanks for the comment. Yes, there are quite a few in the cliff, but it is very dangerous to access.

    This place must be hard to access. So much stuff down there still intact, and no rubbish or recent spraycan graffiti.
    Amazing! Thanks

      Thanks for the comment. This is one reason why it's still in great condition, is the access, it's not easy, and dangerous.

    That was like cave diving in Skyrim!

      It's a bit of a maze, but easy when you go every year.

    That must be the power supply for the lighthouse

      I think it's a lift shaft for when it's cut off by the tide.

      Well spotted . One of the cables is the power for the Lighthouse.

    Last time I did this I stayed too long and nearly died on the miles long trip back along the cliff edge. If you do this go a hour before a 0.5m tide

      I wouldn't recommend anyone visiting this. However, I leave at least an hour, if not 2hrs before low. I have also stayed over a tide, inside. It was cool, but unnerving.
