New Dungeness Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

This is the fifth of seven lighthouses in the Dungeness area and sits less than a mile from the beautiful Old Lighthouse.

The colour is actually impregnated in the concrete rather than painted on and makes for some incredible photos as it contrasts against the alien Dungeness landscape.
