Summary
[edit]DescriptionNS-01411 - Gull Rock Lighthouse (51445405343).jpg |
English: There are dangerous ledges and rocks, known as the Ragged Islands, at the entrance to Lockeport Harbour. Ship owners requested a light to mark these dangers for ships, the government approved funds for a lighthouse on Gull Rock, a wave-swept ledge, 100 meters (328ft) by 38 meters (125ft).
The original lighthouse built in 1853 was a square tapered wooden tower with a dwelling in its lower section. The present lighthouse was built around 1955 and features a square tower on a two storey keepers house. In 1986 athenite was sprayed on the exterior, increasing the thickness of its reinforced concrete walls. The light was de-staffed in 1987, and all the exterior buildings were removed. A skeleton tower light has been installed on the island since the lighthouse is not active. Tower Height: 11.89 meters (39ft) Focal Height: 17.07 meters (56ft) above water level |
