The Lighthouse

in Point Clark at Lake Huron, Ontario ....
The tower is 34 m tall, made primarily of cut limestone brought from Inverhuron by barge, but a section near the top is made of granite for extra rigidity. There are 114 steps from the bottom to the lantern room. The 12 sided cast iron lantern was first lit on April 1, 1859 and is 27 m from the base of the tower. The light keeper's house, resembling a British stone cottage, is a Recognized Federal Heritage Building.
