Built in 1883, it consisted of a round iron tower, a lightkeepers cottage and a storehouse. Originally lit by oil lamps, it has passed through electricity and is now fully automated with solar charged batteries.

So crisp and clear! Love this brightly painted light station, and the history. These landmarks are such a draw - eye candy! Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: July 16, 2009 Comments: 5611

Wilma - As I approched the light house I swear I heard sirens. My first thought was, nah, there is no such thing. My next thought was, if there is no such thing why am I headed for the rocks :-). As always, thank you for your kind comments and feedback. Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: June 18, 2007 Comments: 2256

urbanshooter - The lighthouse was "singing". You could hear the mechanism inside the light. It was very rhythmic and pleasing to the ear. Thank you for your comment and feedback. Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: June 18, 2007 Comments: 2256

gardner48197 - I never meant it to be a lighthouse series. It just sort off happened by default. Thank you for your comment and feedback. Action: \| Ignore User Member Since: June 18, 2007 Comments: 2256
