Thomas,There were a narrow gauge railway to bring the iron ore from the inland mines, not far away, to the cantilevers at the shore. A nice pedestrian's path leads to this cantilever.
A little steam engine made in Germany at the early 20th century, is at this town on a pedestal, a Krauss may be.
There were at the northern spanish shore some other cantilevers like this one, but they were scrapped time ago. The iron ore were shipped to UK to feed the blast furnaces.
Regards,
Ruben
