Why not have a family holiday at Pontin's at Pakefield and see the lighthouse for yourself. You will find details at http://www.pontins.com/centres/pakefield . You can read up this history of this light at Forgotten Lighthouses .
David is an aviation historian working on a project dealing with aircraft losses on the Scottish Islands. He took these photographs in the course of his research. From left to right the lighthouses are Auskerry, Orkney; Cromarty; Sanday, Orkney; Foula, Shetlands and Brough of Birsay, Orkney.

These photos were taken by Frank, a Marketing Executive, who spotted a less than generous description by me of the Pontin's Holiday Centre at Pakefield. The old Pakefield lighthouse is on the left, next to it is Lowestoft and on the right is Happisburgh.

John took these photos of Smeaton's Tower in October 2007 when he was researching the family history of his great grandfather who was keeper on the Eddystone just after the Great War. You can see the breakwater light in the background of the first photo. Good shots John; thanks.

Dean, who works in London, sent in these photos as he walked past it in Tower Hamlets. He wanted to know if the building is a lighthouse. I suspect that it is just a folly, but it is a shame that it is about to be demolished.



Paull, who lives in Humberside, took these photographs of the old River Humber lights. You can see more of these and other lights on Lighthouse Tours .

Marylin, by using the wizardry of her computer, has very cleverly transformed the photo of the Bishop Rock on the left, next of Bamburgh and then three of Belle Tout into these very imaginative artistic images.

When Kitty from Fort Lauderdale, Florida was on holiday in the UK a couple of years ago she took this photo of the old chalk tower lighthouse at Flamborough Head.

This is a particularly nice shot of the disused lighthouse at Point of Ayr, or Talacre as some people call it. Sandy took this on 13th November 2005 and you can see some more of her well composed pictures by visiting the Web Links page.

Tom took this nice shot of South Stack on Anglesey whilst on holiday there in September 2005. He also took this one of St. Mary's Island, Northumberland while on holiday in May 2007. The Lizard photo was taken in September 2007. Thanks Tom.

Peter took the picture of the old disused lights at Dovercourt. On the left is the High light with the Low light just a hundred or so yards in front of it. Next is a photo of the old Low and High lights at Harwich which were replaced by the Dovercourt ones. Finally Peter took a series of photos of this old rusting pile lighthouse on Gunfleet Sands and you can see these on Lighthouse Tours and read about the lighthouse at Gunfleet.

This picture of Whitford Point on the Gower Peninsular was taken by Phillip who is a professional photographer. You can see his work on the Alamy photo library website.

Brian from the Medway took these photographs of Portland Bill in 2004 when he took the family on holiday. He, together with his grown up children and grandchildren, climbed to the top but poor old Mrs, who had a dodgy ankle, stayed at the bottom. They had a holiday
at Hunstanton on the right in 2003. You can see Brian's 2006 tour of Portland on Lighthouse Tours . You will find a link to Brian's web site on the Web Link page.


Brian took this photo tour of the Shoreham light in March 2005 on recent trip to Sussex.
