Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Phillip Lucette Beacon, Shaldon. Also shown at low tide in 917481. "Date unknown. Active; focal plane 4 m (13 ft); red light, occulting once every 6 s. 4 m (13 ft) stone column ... not a lighthouse, but obviously a venerable beacon. Located on the south side of the entrance to the Teign, off Marine Parade in Shaldon. Site open, tower closed. Operator: Teignmouth Harbour Commission. Admiralty A0263; NGA 0400." http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/lighthouse/engs.htm
The boat in the background may have been echosounding or dredging the channel off the mouth of the river. The adjacent sand banks ("poles") are subject to continual change, and dredging is required virtually on a daily basis. http://www.vliz.be/imisdocs/publications/100201.pdf |
