Summary
[edit]
| Description |
The base of the 'Rocket Post' on Hilbre? Post hole for a signal rocket. See http://www.photographers-resource.co.uk/A_heritage/Lighthouses/LG2_EW/Hilbre_Island_Lighthouse.htm The hole filed with water in the front is where the post for the 'rocket post'. At one time a rocket was used to summon the lifeboat men out to Hilbre, and the 1913 and 1927 OS maps record a 'Rocket Post' on Hilbre at close to this location. |
