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.

In 1906 two concrete piers (792ft apart) were constructed to support the two range lights. The piers are 12.8 meters (42ft) at the base and 7.6 meters (25ft) at the top, 8.5 meters (28ft) high.

The rear light was no longer needed and was replaced by a skeletal tower erected at Île a la Bague.

Tower Height: 11 meters (36ft) Focal Plane: 10.7 meters (35ft) above water level Light: Fixed Green
