On the day of the official opening, the painting by Antonia Phillips was unveiled. The reason for the painting in the 1st place was to mark our move from Peveril Point to North Beach Car Park.
Starting in the top left hand corner, there is a picture of the Old Landrover at the station before the extension in 1982.
Then there is the silver medal presented to Mr Lose the Chief Coastguard in 1875 for the rescue of the Wild Wave on Peveril Point.
The Coastguard lookout before it was closed and handed over to NCI.

Finally the blue print for the new station.
Each team member was presented by a print of the paint, this was kindly donated by Mr Nick Storer and presented by the Mayor to the team members.
If anyone is interested in purchasing a copy of the print then please get in touch, if there is enough interest we may make them available.
