A Trinity House steamer waits off the Eddystone Lighthouse to delivery Christmas supplies

A Trinity House steamer waits off the Eddystone Lighthouse to delivery Christmas supplies to the keepers. The Eddystone Rocks are located 8 miles off Rame Head, Cornwall. The present tower is the 5th lighthouse to be built here. Designed by James Douglass and completed in 1882 the light is still in use today. Its original oil powered lamps were replaces in 1956 by electrics. A helicopter deck added in 1980, and the station became automated and unmanned in 1982. The light flashes two whites every 10 seconds, with a range of 24 miles.
