Line 40:
'''Southwold lighthouse''' is a [[lighthouse]] operated by [[Trinity House]] in the centre of [[Southwold]] in [[Suffolk]], England. It stands on the [[North Sea]] coast, acting as a warning light for shipping passing along the east coast and as a guide for vessels navigating to Southwold harbour.
The lighthouse, which is a prominent local landmark, was commissioned in 1890, and was automated and electrified in 1938. It survived a fire in its original oil-fired lamp just six days after commissioning and today operates a 180-watt main navigation lamp.
