Tags: Lighthouse, Tower.
In 1856 the first lighthouse was installed by the British Government’s Trinity House. It was a cast iron tower with a coal oil lamp turned by clockwork. It was replaced in 1907 by a 29-metre (95 ft) tall concrete tower and a light with a massive hyperradiant Fresnel lens made by Chance Brothers in England. It had a massive optic emitting a one million candle power flash.
