The Eddystone Lighthouse is on the dangerous Eddystone Rocks, 9 statute miles (14 km) south of Rame Head, England, United Kingdom.While Rame Head is in Cornwall, the rocks are in Devon and composed of Precambrian gneiss. The current structure is the fourth to be built on the site.he tower is 49 metres (161 ft) high, and its white light flashes twice every 10 seconds. The light is visible to 22 nautical miles (41 km), and is supplemented by a foghorn of 3 blasts every 62 seconds.
Now on the National Register of Historic Places, the lighthouse is owned by the City of Rockland and maintained by a dedicated group of volunteers. The breakwater is 4,363 feet (just over 0.8 miles) long. The walk from the parking area out to the lighthouse and back is about a two-mile round trip. Constructed with 700,000 tons of local granite, the breakwater is an engineering marvel that has helped make Rockland Harbor one of the best safe harbors east of Portland.
