Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The present lighthouse has been in operation since 1884. This was the rear range light for the harbour, the front range light is no longer there. The lighthouse is white tapered wooden tower, with a red lantern. It was a guide for coastal steamers transporting non-perishable goods into the only protected harbour on the western side of Cape Breton Island. Over the years gypsum was shipped from here, there was also a lobster and salmon canning factory right next to the lighthouse.
