Lighthouses have been a part of the English coastline for centuries. They are tall structures that are built to guide ships and other vessels through dangerous waters. Many of these lighthouses are now operated by the coastguard or other organisations, but there are still some that are privately owned. These days, most lighthouses are automated, but there are a few that still require a human presence. Lighthouses are an important part of the maritime history of England and continue to play a vital role in keeping the coast safe.
The first lighthouse in England was built in the 12th century and was known as the Eddystone Lighthouse. This structure was destroyed and rebuilt several times over the centuries, with the current lighthouse dating back to 1882. The Eddystone Lighthouse is one of the most famous lighthouses in the world and is a Grade I listed building.
There are many other notable lighthouses in England, including the Longstone Lighthouse on the Isle of Portland, which dates back to 1609. The Lizard Lighthouse is another well-known lighthouse, which was first lit in 1619. This structure stands at a height of nearly 100 feet (30 metres) and is the oldest working lighthouse in Cornwall.
