Page "Runnel Stone" Paragraph 5

One 19th century attempt to attach a warning buoy to the Runnel Stone was led by the naval Lieutenant Hugh Goldsmith ( nephew of the famous poet Oliver Goldsmith ) aboard the cutter HMS Nimble.

After several unsuccessful attempts Lt. Goldsmith and a number of his crew turned their attention inland and succeeded in toppling the famous Logan Rock from its precarious perch on the Treryn Dinas headland east of Porthcurno.
