Glasson Dock and its Lighthouse

Glasson Dock and its Lighthouse
Established in 1836 and now disused, we see here the small very unusual lighthouse on this secluded Victoria Terrace. On the left side we see the big black lock gate that takes shipping from the Lancaster Canal, behind me, into a deep lock and then through another lock-gate into the estuary across from Sunderland Point into the Irish Sea.

Have a great weekend. Herb

Not very much there, but a great place to explore from. Most of the more interesting dock area's you could not get to as they were private.

That's a real neat lighthouse Herb'... looks like it's been picked up from it's location and dropped there for storage ..:-)....... have a good weekend - and a 'HFF' from > Dj.

Herb Riddle club has replied to David G Johnson club
Good to see you again David. Yes, when I too first saw this, and I never got any closer, I thought it a joke but it is indeed real and quite historical. It is supposed that the lighthouse keeper lived inside. -later in the week we met a bloke who was following 'The British Lighthouse Trail by Sarah Kerr' and that lighthouse was his next stop on his list.

HFF, enjoy the week. Herb

I love that sweet little lighthouse Herb. At first glance I thought it was a small mariners' chapel
Beautifully captured in wonderful light and the reflections are lovely.

All the right ingredients for you Carol. A nice surprise to me when I saw this. It was lived in for some time by the keep(s). Glad you like it.

hello Herb, I have only ever been there once but guessed the location from the thumbnail. It’s a very strange isolated place. love the lighthouse.
2 years ago.
Herb Riddle club has replied to Colin Ashcroft club
An interesting place to visit on a warm nice day and picnic by the basin next to the big car park. The lighthouse was a bonus for me as were using the car-park first for our picnic and then as the base for a much bigger walk on the coast itself. Glad it brought back memories for you.

Keep safe. Herb

A nicely detailed shot Herb..............with a lot to look at. It definitely warrants viewing large!

I like the light, especially on the water, and the reflections are good. The patches of red draw the eye into the shot nicely and I'm fascinated by all the gadgets on the top of the white building. I also like the two gulls in the water.

Enjoy the rest of your day..................and have an enjoyable weekend.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Always good to see you Keith. The white building -or as some would say 'Lighthouse' had some unusual elements for sure. As you observe, the lighting helped a great deal here too.

Keep safe. Herb
