Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Liverpool, Nova Scotia boasts a uniquely shaped light, one of the oldest in Nova Scotia, commanding a historic site close to the middle of town. Named after the fortified gun battery that protected the town from the 1760s to the 1860s, the point saw several actions in the American Revolution. It was also a signal station and an important public gathering place for the town, becoming park in the late1800s. The first lighthouse was established here in 1855
This lighthouse is a timber combination dwelling and tower in an unusual "hunchbacked" shape. Body of Water: Liverpool Harbour Scenic Drive: Lighthouse Route Tower Height: 5.18 m (17ft) Height Above Water: 9.2 m (30ft) Characteristic: Flashing White (1950) Still standing: True Still operating: False |
