Description

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

The lighthouse on Shipley Head was established in 1885, following the sinking of the SS Atlantic in 1873. The present tower replaced the mast light in 1903 and was built using local people from the area.

In poor condition, the lantern room was removed around 1980. The residents would like to put the original top back on the lighthouse.

Tower Height: 7.92 meters (26ft) Light Height: 14.6 meters (48ft) above water level Light range: 9.66 km (6 miles) Light characteristic: Fixed Red (1990). Light automated (destaffed): by 1993
