Fraggle Rock Lighthouse - HFF!

Fraggle Rock Lighthouse - HFF!
Also called St Anthony's Lighthouse, at St Anthony Head, on the eastern side of the entrance to Falmouth harbour, Cornwall. The harbour is also known as Carrick Roads and is one of the largest natural harbours in the world. The lighthouse was built in 1835 by Olver of Falmouth, for Trinity House and the original light came from eight Argand oil lamps. - See Pip for Fresnel....

St. Anthony's lighthouse was featured in the intro of the UK version of Jim Henson's Fraggle Rock (Muppets), as "The Fraggle Rock Lighthouse".

I must admit to having a weakness for lighthouses. I don't know this at all. Thanks and well done.

HFF, enjoy your weekend, Herb

A interesting set of images of this beautiful lighthouse............with a nice mix of perspectives. The image in the first PiP showing the rainbow colours in the lens is fantastic!

I wondered if you knew of it's link with Jim Henson! Oh, and I just noticed the fence too.

HFF Berny.............have a super weekend.
