I recently uploaded an image of 'The Chalk Tower', which is the original Flamborough Lighthouse, having been built in the 1600's. This is the Victorian replacement and is the more familiar of the two to most people.

The clouds seem made to order here, David, focusing our attention on the lovely building.
Best wishes,

So rich in technique and panache. Ticks all the boxes.
