A ninety foot tower standing in a residential street, 141 feet above the sea, that ships entering the harbour line up with the West Bank light five miles away to find the Ambrose Channel. Its original second order Fresnel lens and glass reflector are still in the lantern. The hill it sits on took its name from the light.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
