So I was given lighthouses as a theme. I don't actually have many photos of lighthouses. They tend to be in remote places and I don't.

The first one then is Low Head, at the mouth of the Tamar. More photos here of the other buildings and the leading lights further down the river.

This seems to be the only photo I have of the Mersey Bluff lighthouse at Devonport. Built 1889.

At Stanley, another relocation. From Highfield? Now it's a memorial to sailors and you can look through the windows at the little displays.

One of the displays (with bonus squirrel). There is a another occurrence of Squirrel in these photos too.
