Early forms of the lighthouse (roughly 1860s) that would have guided ships in Harwich. Restored in the 1980s they're now a local highlight and well worth stopping off at the explore.

The lighthouses, commissioned by Trinity House in 1862 and completed in 1863, served to guide ships towards Harwich harbour (some 1.5km to the north) their different heights enabling the two lights to be aligned on approach. They replaced two late 18th century lighthouses at Harwich (the `Low' and `High' lighthouses) which had become unreliable due to shifting sand bars around the mouth of the Stour estuary. A comprehensive pattern of marker buoys in the harbour approach rendered the new lights obsolete in 1917. The lights escaped demolition, but gradually deteriorated through lack of routine maintenance. A major programme of restoration took place between 1983 and 1988.

These unusual lighthouses were built around the 17th century and are a unique example of the first types of lighthouses dating to Roman and medieval times. The lighthouses would have been lit using coal or wood before gas or electric lamps were installed. More information: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1017200
