Jack Rattenbury, the 'Rob Roy of the West', was born at Beer in 1778 and experienced a series of adventures at sea before settling down to a life of smuggling along this wild and lonely coast. Rattenbury wrote of his experiences in his book Memoirs of a Smuggler; he spent his latter years living on a small pension provided by the local landowner, Lord Rolle.
