Absolutely brilliant that Zoom Kev to be able to see Paddy's Wigwam and Anfield so clear from Perch Rock Lighthouse on a winter's day is bloody amazing 👏 loadsa thumbs-up 👍.
Some Info on Perch Rock Lighthouse as I know it by. From Wikipedia >> It was built-in 1827 to replace a wooden Perch navigation light. The lighthouse was in continuous use until decommissioned in October 1973 having been superseded by modern navigational technology. Although the lighting apparatus and fog bell have been removed, the lighthouse is very well preserved and retains many features lost on other disused lighthouses. It was restored and repainted in 2001 when an LED lightsource was installed which flashed the names of those lost at sea; including all the 1,517 victims of the sinking of the Titanic. At low tide, it is possible to walk to the base of the tower, but a 25-foot ladder is needed to reach the doorway. The lighthouse is privately owned and maintained by the Kingham family, and is a Grade2 listed building. Another plan to illuminate the lantern using LEDs and solar panels was achieved with a grant from the Coastal Revival and New Brighton Coastal Community Team (NBCCT) and has been operating (albeit only to be seen from land) since 2015. The new light replicates the old characteristic of two white flashes followed by a red flash.
Boss video as always mate. I remember a few years me and my brother went to what was meant to be the first time it was lit since 1973. They said the light would be as powerful as the lantern was when it was in use, so everyone that was there thought it would be like how it used to be. What a farce it was. Basically the solar panels power the LEDs that illuminate the inland side of the shaft of the lighthouse.
If you are out doing what you like doing, then it's a great feeling. Live in the moment, Kev. I know you appreciate everything but you do actually deserve everything. Be happy, Kev. 💪Please & Thank you.
Incredible video Mate, in the most perfect light. Been on the South Stack Lighthouse tour, well worth it, the lantern actually sits in a circular cast iron trough of mercury. So the lantern floats on a miniature 'Canal' of mercury and therefore has no bearings to wear out!!!!
Great video Kev, really interesting to see the lighthouse close up! You should try the Mersey Tunnels ventilation buildings, George's Dock Building, Woodside Ventilation Station, theres a few of them on both sides of the water. I think it would be interesting to see them from above and get an idea of how they function.
Saw you on the bus on our way to New Brighton yesterday but you went upstairs before I could say hello and you got off before us , keep up the good work.
Good to see the drone back up mate..there's a great little lighthouse down river at Hale..its a a great little historic village to visit aswel..Hale Lighthouse is the most southern point of the historical county of Lancashire.
I done a drone flight around the lighthouse not too long ago, and there where people inside it, unfortunately my drone doesn't have a zoom on it like yours does. I love the video, keep up the good work.
Looks like a nice clear day for it, Kev. That lighthouse would be a great place to stay between tides. Apparently its private owned by a wirral family ? I did look into a few years ago. My guess is the solar panels are for cctv or an alarm ?

“Smells like sewage, is it them?” 😂 this had me in stitches! Great footage, smooth and lovely lighting, really enjoyed it thanks Kev ❤
Ha ha thank you
Lovely video of lighthouse may that girder was to hoist items when they need deliveries and tide was in. Good to hear your mums still doing well xx🎉❤
Happy to see you back. Hope your mum is okay ❤👍
Thank you
Great work Kev, hope your Mum is getting better, peace and love to you both. 🙏❤️
Great footage 👌
I'd like to see you fly a drone off the ferry whilst you're on it and get some great shots as it sails across the Mersey.
Unfortunately Mersey travel wouldn’t allow that
Love this video, you should do alot more of these taking advantage of the zoom lense Kev, our area has a wealth of interesting buildings old and new
Yeah I need to get my thinking cap on

Good to see the drone back up mate..there's a great little lighthouse down river at Hale..its a a great little historic village to visit aswel..Hale Lighthouse is the most southern point of the historical county of Lancashire.
Yeah I like Hale village
A fly around the Liver building and St John's tower would be nice.
Good video Kev. One of the liver buildings and surrounds would be good lad.
Have you ever been to Hilbre Island? It's well worth a visit with a drone. Check the tides before you go 😃❤🙏
Great job kev.should give Bidston windmill a try. The old lighthouse too if you can get permission from the owner.
I done a drone flight around the lighthouse not too long ago, and there where people inside it, unfortunately my drone doesn't have a zoom on it like yours does. I love the video, keep up the good work.
Thanks Ray
What drone do you have please KC it’s a brilliant picture and zoom is amazing
Mavic 3
The drone remained very still during zooming. How about Leasowe Lighthouse next and a tour of Hilbre Island when the tides in?
That’s a good idea
Boss vid kev ❤
👍👍👍👍
impressive zoom on cam to zoom in different parts of the city hope your mam is ok and your dad has gone home and had decent sleep
Looks like a nice clear day for it, Kev. That lighthouse would be a great place to stay between tides. Apparently its private owned by a wirral family ? I did look into a few years ago. My guess is the solar panels are for cctv or an alarm ?
Oh nice one, that’s good info
i cant do voice overs , i've done filming, gone back to check it , gone back and done it again ..more than twice lol
It’s a nightmare
Kev can u do the drone on the liver birds on the liver building love to see them close up just thought I'd give u an idea
Can do Paul
@Kevcupo thanks mate
I thought the same 👍
What do you think they will do with radio tower when it shuts down kev??
Cracking zoom mate. Liver building could be worth a go?
I could look at it
Another good video, what drone is it kev? that zoom looks great
DJI Mavic 3
Not far from there mate on Bidston Hill you have got Bidston Observatory which is very historic and an really enigmatic building
Good video mate and I hope your mum is ok.
New briton when we wer kids was just the best day out,comin from norris green it was a full day out on ferry etc😂😂😂😂
The solar panels are probably for cctv or an intruder alarm
