In Search of a Title

In the interests of balanced reporting :)

These are the photos I have of Bell Bay, the big industrial area near the mouth of the Tamar. First is taken from Beauty Point, the resort town on the other side of the river; the second is from the West Tamar Highway.

The Low Head lighthouse was built in 1888, replacing a 50 year old dilapidated tower.

The original tower was designed by Colonial Architect John Lee Archer, who was responsible for many public buildings in the colonies, including Parliament House, Ross Bridge, the King's Orphanage and the
Penitentiary Chapel

I won't include any comments. If you want to know more about the lighthouse, have a look at Lighthouses of Australia. For the buildings on the site (the tower and the older cottage), there's some information in the Australian Heritage Database.
