The cable to guide the keeper to the lighthouse is about 1.5 – 2 inchese in diamter, fed through wooden fence posts with a wood top beam shielding the cable the last few meters to the lighthouse. There was a hurricane in 1988 that was so severe that the family who lived in the house moved away. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akraberg
