New, relevant resource.

There is a recent (October 2013) new book Belle Tout - The Little Lighthouse That Moved ISBN 978-1909359192 which may be valuable to editors.--SPhilbrick (Talk) 01:56, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Name

The article doesn't explain the origin of the unusual name, unless I've missed it somewhere. --Ef80 (talk) 12:40, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The name Belle Tout was adopted from the headland on which the lighthouse was built. Its origins are debatable. See page 7 of the hardback version of this book for further information.
