Ananke is the UK's most isolated lighthouse
and when her keeper died in 1938 after being the lone occupant since her construction forty years prior
the Northen Lighthouse Commission had serious trouble replacing him
Partly due to the lighthouse being here - on St Sasha
To be 200 miles from civilisation with no easy route home separates the aspiring hermits
from those who see the lifestyle as a true calling
But, also, when nะตws of the circumstances surrounding the keepะตr's death began to find their way into major newspapers
the enthusiasm of potential applicants diminished significantly
The strange and violent fate that befell David Brownley haunts the island to this day
And though there have been a number of hypotheses presented over the years
Brownley's lonely death has never been adequately explained
