	Lighthouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lighthouses are used to mark dangerous coastlines, hazardous shoals away from the coast and safe entries to harbors.
		In very old lighthouses, the light source was a kerosene lamp, and the lenses were rotated by a clockwork assembly wound daily by lighthouse keepers.
		Perhaps the most famous lighthouse in history is the Lighthouse of Alexandria, built on the island of Pharos in ancient Egypt.

	Trinity House \| Interactive \| Gallery \| Strumble Head Lighthouse
		Strumble Head Lighthouse stands imposingly on Ynysmeicl (St. Michael's Island), an islet to the west of Fishguard, separated from the mainland by a very narrow gap through which the sea boils and froths in stormy weather.
		The station was built in 1908 by Trinity House for the greater safety of sea traffic between Ireland and the new Fishguard Harbour which is located behind cliffs and a breakwater three miles to the east.
		The lighthouse was converted to unmanned automatic operation in 1980 and is now monitored from the Operations Control Centre at Harwich.

	Wales Lighthouses
		The lighthouses of the country are clustered in the north, guarding the approaches to the Mersey, and in the south, guarding the approaches to the Severn.
		This remarkable lighthouse is perched high on a vertical cliff at the northern end of the promontory.
		The lighthouse stands at the northeastern corner of the Isle of Anglesey marking the northern entrance to Menai Strait, which separates the island from the Welsh mainland.

		The path round Dinas Head, which is owned by the National Trust, gives some good views of the coast around Newport Bay and, upon reaching the trig point at the summit, a good view of Fishguard Bay and Strumble Head.
		By 11.00 I had reached Strumble Head and the weather was gradually brightening with a few patches of sunshine but still with a cool wind.
		Strumble Head was the farthest point I had been able to see on the first day as I rounded Cemaes Head and I now had a clear view back the other way with Cardigan Island, which was clearly visible.

	Strumble Head Lighthouse (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Strumble Head Lighthouse stands on Ynys Meicl (St. Michael's), a rocky island at the northwest corner of Pencaer, in the British Isles.
		It was erected in 1908 to improve the safety of sea traffic, warning of rocky coast and strong currents and serving as a navigational aid.
		Although Ynys Meicl is connected to the mainland via a narrow bridge, building the island presented many difficulties usually associated with building lighthouses on more remote islands.

	Trinity House \| Interactive \| Gallery \| Casquets Lighthouse
		The three Casquets lights reverted to Trinity House (in 1785) and were converted to metal reflectors and Argand lamps on 25th November, 1790; a revolving apparatus was fitted to each tower at the Casquets in 1818, and the three towers were raised by 30ft in 1854.
		The Casquets Lighthouse and rocks have been the scene of many shipping disasters, among them the SS STELLA in 1899 with a lost of 112 lives, the BLANCHE NEUF centuries earlier, carrying Prince William, son of Henry I from Normandy to England and the British Man O'War VICTORY in 1744 with a complement of 1,100.
		Casquets Lighthouse was converted to automatic operation in November, 1990 and is now monitored from the Trinity House Operations Control Centre in Harwich.

	Trinity House \| Interactive \| Gallery \| St Bees Lighthouse
		South of the harbours of Maryport, Workington and Whitehaven, sandy beaches and grassy foreshores give way to cliffs around St. Bees Head, a high promontory, which was a danger to small coastal vessels trading between the ports of Wales and the Solway Firth.
		In 1718, Trinity House obtained a patent for the building of a lighthouse on the Head and in turn leased it to a private individual Thomas Lutwige, for ninety-nine years at an annual rent of £20.
		St Bees Lighthouse was automated and demanned in 1987 and is now monitored from the Trinity House Operations Control Centre at Harwich.

	Lighthouses to Visit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		There may be attendants at some lighthouses and you may be able to gain access to the inside of the stations there, at the discretion of the attendant.
		A few major lighthouses have a good welcome for visitors, but, on the whole you may be disappointed at the low level of availability of many lighthouses to visitors.
		In the South-East, Beachy Head is spectacular from the cliffs, and the old lighthouse to the west has just been moved back from the cliff edge.

	Walk #391: Strumble Head to Newport
		This walk was quite strenuous with many ascents and descents to be made, even on the first section from Strumble Head.
		I was not in much of a hurry, and so I decided to have a second pint and relax a little, which with hindsight may have been a mistake.
		By this stage I was feeling decidedly fuzzy in my head, so I was not in a massively talkative mood as I was concentrating on the walk itself.

		About half way between the Tuskar Rock and Strumble Head across the channel the captain decided to run before it in a north easterly course for half an hour before heaving to on a course of S.S.W. as he feared we might be on too fine a course towards the Welsh coast.
		When this was successfully accomplished and the engine revolutions were adjusted the captain slipped into his cabin for a while and I was joined on the bridge by third officer Vollrath.
		Moments later a rogue sea came over the fo'csle head and crashed into the forward well deck smashing some iron-bound storm hatches, which covered Number 2 hatchway and washing away the two stairways ascending from the well deck to the passenger accommodation forward and disturbing the bulkhead at the after end of the well deck.

	Walk #390: Abereiddy to Strumble Head
		As the sun went down behind the lighthouse the sky went a beautiful red colour, with a vertical beam going up into the sky as a horizontal white beam swept around from the lighthouse - a stunning view, and one that photographs cannot reproduce well.
		The light got annoying after a while as it was massively bright, and could be seen sweeping around the countryside beside the van, so we closed the blinds and curtains to keep the light out.
		We parked Mervan in a car park at Strumble Head, which was a lovely place to park as long as you can fl out he light from the lighthouse, which sweeps over the landscape and car park four times at regular intervals.

		Filming began in September 2002 and the movie was shot over the course of five weeks in locations primarily in south London, centering around Brixton and Clapham, and one week in Wales, based in Fishguard.
		Fifty two locations were used during the intense 29-day shooting schedule, which included filming at the Strumble Head lighthouse during the worst storm to hit the Welsh coast in 20 years.
		The movie, written by Trevor Preston, is directed by Mike Hodges and takes him back to the crime genre for the first time since the seminal 'Get Carter' of thirty one years ago (with the plot echoing the same theme).
