See the bays of Glamorgan from a different perspective by paying a visit to the Nash Point Lighthouse, it is Wales’ last manned lighthouse, famous for a tragedy in the 1830s when 78 lives were lost in a shipwreck off the coast, also known for being the only British lighthouse managed by a female lighthouse attendant.
