About this image

DescriptionCape Foulwind is a headland on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand, overlooking the Tasman Sea. It is located 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) west of the town of Westport. There is a lighthouse located on a prominent site on the headland.

A walkway beginning at the lighthouse carpark traverses the rocky headland to Tauranga Bay and passes close by a colony of New Zealand fur seals. There is limestone quarry in the area, and a cement works operated nearby from 1958 to 2016.Map^[1]ContributorGary Hodson

Interesting to know what was on this site before - it could help when looking at other photos of earlier years. When was this hotel built? I'm trying to work out if it is just the one building or two? and if this photo shows 2 buildings - what is the one with the little porch?
