Standing at the end of the long breakwater, the 43ft-high lighthouse was designed by Joseph Nelson and became the most northerly lighthouse in England. ๐ŸŒŠ 200 years later, it remains an important symbol of Berwick, having even featured in several works by artist L. S. Lowry. ๐Ÿ“– You can read more about the history of Berwick Lighthouse in the latest issue of Lamp, the ALKโ€™s quarterly journal. #Onthisday #ALK #Lamp #BerwickLighthouse #LighthouseHistory #LighthouseKeepers #BerwickUponTweed #RiverTweed #keepinglighthouseheritage
๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’ก On 29 September 1786, the first lighthous ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’ก On 29 September 1786, the first lighthouse at Hurst Point in Hampshire was established, helping guide vessels through the busy and hazardous approaches to the Solent. Overlooking the narrow entrance to the western Solent, Hurst Point has been an important aid to navigation for more than two centuries. The site has seen several lighthouse towers and many changes in technology as navigation evolved. Today, Hurst Pointโ€™s historic lighthouses stand alongside Hurst Castle, forming an impressive part of the maritime heritage of the Hampshire coast. Hurst Castle is also home to the ALK Lighthouse Museum, and is well worth a visit! #HurstPointLighthouse #LighthouseHistory #LighthouseHeritage #Hampshire #Solent #LighthouseKeepers #MaritimeHistory #LighthouseLegacy #ALK #AssociationOfLighthouseKeepers #Keepinglighthouseheritagealive

From seafarers and engineers to harbour staff, rescue services and lighthouse keepers, countless people have helped ships navigate safely and keep vital trade moving. ๐Ÿšข For centuries, the sea has connected people and places โ€” from navigation by stars to todayโ€™s satellite technology. ๐Ÿ’ก Lighthouses, lightvessels and other maritime heritage sites are a lasting reminder of that history, telling stories of innovation, dedication and the people who kept watch. On World Maritime Day, we celebrate our maritime past, recognise those who keep our seas safe today, and look towards a more sustainable future. ๐ŸŒŠ Keeping watch, then and now. #keepinglighthouseheritagealive #WorldMaritimeDay #MaritimeHeritage #LighthouseHeritage #LighthouseKeepers #Seafarers #GlobalTrade #RNLI #MaritimeHistory #LighthouseLegacy #ALK #AssociationOfLighthouseKeepers
