Eclipse Island Lighthouse : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eclipse Island Lighthouse
Eclipse Island Lighthouse was built in 1926 on Eclipse Island off the south coast of Western Australia It was built as a cylindrical tower made of concrete. Initially it was a manned station using kerosene as lantern fuel in combination with a first order Fresnel lens. In 1976 the lantern was completely removed though and the optic was put on display at the Western Australian Museum. Today the light is emitted from atop a mast on the lighthouse's concrete trunk. The characteristic is a group of three flashes every twelve seconds from a focal plane at above sea level. Three family quarters made of brick with fibro roofing along with several outbuildings, concrete tanks and bases, generator shed, helipad and a concrete landing can be found around the lighthouse. A trestle based light gauge railway and cable towers are also found in the lighthouse precinct, and was all constructed during the interwar period.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Heritage Assessment Documentation ) 〕 ==Notes==
