Description

Portland Bill Lighthouse is a functioning lighthouse at Portland Bill, on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, England. The lighthouse and its boundary walls are Grade II Listed. The lighthouse was opened in 1903 and automated in 1996. This is a landscape photograph of the lighthouse, coastguard station and surround area leading to the obelisk in the distance which served as the original warning to shipping in the 19th Century from 1844 before effectively being replaced by the lighthouse itself in 1903.

The original photo was captured and post edited to give this stunning landscape / coastal vista image of this iconic landmark and surrounding area.
