Summary
| Description |
English: The Heugh Lighthouse, Hartlepool Headland. There have been three lighthouses on the cliff top at Hartlepool. The first stood from 1846 - 1915 and was probably the first successful gas-lit lighthouse in the world. It was taken down during the First World War because it stood in the way of the guns at Heugh Battery. It was replaced by a temporary light on the nearby Town Moor, which was used until 1927 when the current lighthouse 655363 was built http://portcities.hartlepool.gov.uk/server.php?show=ConNarrative.6&chapterId=43
