Spurn Lower Lighthouse
A visit to Spurn Point 21
There are two lighthouses on Spurn; this is the older, 'Lower Lighthouse', which was built by engineer John Smeaton and completed in 1776.
By 1892, the structure was becoming cracked and unstable, and the new 'Upper Lighthouse' was constructed to replace Smeaton's light.
The black cylinder on the top is a water tank, which has replaced the former lantern turret.
