Summer 1970 Burnham-on-Sea

Summer 1970 Burnham-on-Sea
This is a fairly straight scan from a 35mm slide. Anyone who visits Burnham has to have a photo with the Lower Light. That light when aligned with the more traditional Upper light, guided ships through the treacherous channels in the mud. It was decommissioned in 1969, just before this photo was taken, but returned to active service in 1993, when the High Lighthouse was decommissioned.

Lovely bit of nostalgia ... I do hope though that the structure was retained when it was retired? :)

I am sure that it is a listed building and it can be seen from the air in the current (2015) Google map of the area.

A lovely photo Phil. I have so many slides to scan to the computer. I hope they turn out as good as this one.
