Landing stores for Pencarrow Lighthouse

Image

Access to the Pencarrow Lighthouse was always difficult. This image shows crew from the government ship Tutanekai landing stores on Pencarrow Head. The men on the beach are loading sacks and boxes onto a horse-drawn sledge, while the Tutanekai rides at anchor behind them. This photograph was taken on 16 February 1923.
