Highlights and lowlights!
Highlights and lowlights.
Here's an interesting link from Trinity House that tells all about the Lowestoft light houses as they once were.
The Lowestoft highlight as seen today.
The Lowestoft lowlight which was removed in the 1920's.

Re: Highlights and lowlights!
I remember when the Happisburgh lighthouse came up for sale some years ago, I was seriously contemplating buying it just for the novelty of living there!

Re: Highlights and lowlights!
Well I never did!
I didn't know it existed, how on earth did it manage to get hit by machine gun fire in the war? Was it self-inflicted? What do they need volunteers for?
