We created a listing "
Featured List of
lighthouses - England and Wales"
that contains the lighthouse of most interest to photographers and tourists in
England and Wales and the others we have identified including port lighthouses
and lights and some others we have detailed here on this page. This list is
likely to grow but we don't intend to add every single light.
Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked,
this links to one of our Location pages with more information on this
site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of
you would like to also produce location pages.
This page contains some that may move to the
other page when more research has been done, and has in some cases links that
may or may not be connected, we are still researching these.
Marinas is a website that
contains many great aerial images of coastal features, including lighthouses and
lights, and we have, where we can identify, added a direct link into their website
where you can see several images of the lighthouse, and a map identifying its
position. Other images can often be found in Geograph.
