Description: Trinity House obelisk, Portland Bill This seven metre tall white stone obelisk was built in 1844 at the southern tip of Portland Bill as a warning of a low shelf of rock extending 30 metres south into the sea. The obelisk was saved from threatened demolition in 2002. It is now accompanied by two 'talking telescopes', which have been removed from their mounts for the winter season.
