More about this scene
This weird contraption takes visitors out to Burgh Island, which stands just off the mainland at Bigbury. It is possible to walk out to the island and its hotel at low water, but when the tide is in, this beast comes into its own. This particular machine no longer exists, but its replacement serves the same purpose.
