Portland Bill / Lighthouse (2 pics)
Known as the 'modern' lighthouse, this was built by the Wakeham Brothers of Plymouth, 1906, and is still operational. Grade II listed. In foreground, some of the stone for which the Isle of Portland is famous.
As well as its intense light, which can be seen for 25 nautical miles when clear, there is a fog horn which sounds every 30 seconds when visibility is poor. The sound blast has a range of 2 nautical miles. Dorset, England.
