Whitby West Pier Lighthouse

Week 20 Whitby West Pier

First time I have been to the end of the west pier in Whitby. Intrigued by the odd looking lighthouse I had to take a closer look. It is a 'Lighthouse' by definition and was erected on the spot in 1914. It shows a steady green light to guide ships into the mouth of the river Esk, the east pier light shows a steady red.
