Ynys Llanddwyn Lighthouse
Made by alexbrn
Ynys Llanddwyn Lighthouse marks the western entrance to the Menai Strait. The tower is tapered in a way characteristic of Anglesey windmills, it is 10.7 m (35 ft) high) and 5.5 m (18 ft) in diameter. It may have been constructed by an Anglesey stone mason, and it is possible that the tower itself was originally used as a windmill. The lantern and fittings cost £250 7s 6d, including the adaptation of an ‘earlier tower’. The north-east door is flanked by small windows, and the two floors above also have small windows, but the top does not. The conical roof is slated and has a flag pole. The present lantern window is about 2m (6 ft 6ins) by 0.61 m (2 ft). The optic, silver plated reflector and Fresnel lens were used into the 1970s and are dated 1861. The lantern was originally lit by six Argand lamps with reflectors. [from Wikipedia]

This lighthouse is on a small island off Anglesey. The weather that evening was great and just for a minute or two we got this stunning light.
