Description

Trwyn Du Lighthouse, Anglesey, North Wales
.....
Trwyn Du Lighthouse is a lighthouse between Dinmor Point near Penmon and Ynys Seriol, or Puffin Island, south east Anglesey, at the north entrance to the Menai Strait and marking the passage between the two islands.
.....
There had been a call for a light at Penmon Point for some years, especially after the steamer the Rothsay Castle ran aground and broke up nearby in 1831 with 130 people losing their lives. The first lighthouse was erected in 1838.
.....
The present Lighthouse is 29m tall, designed by James Walker and built in 1835-1838. It was his first sea-washed tower.
The Lighthouse has a stepped base designed to discourage the huge upsurge of waves that had afflicted earlier lighthouses on the site and reduce the force of the water at the bottom of the tower.
.....
The lamp was converted to solar power in 1996. The Lighthouse has a 15,000 candela light that can be seen 12 miles (22 km) away and a 178 kilogram fog bell that sounds once every thirty seconds. A nearby lifeboat station, built in 1832, closed in 1915. The tower has been unmanned since 1922
