The Old Lighthouse, Dungeness

About

The lighthouse, built in 1904, is one of the highest towers in England and is the fourth lighthouse on this site. But for the construction of the nearby power station which obscured the sector light, the lighthouse could still beserving mariners. Visitors can see how the lantern was worked and cleaned when in use.
