Devonport
These two leading lights guide ships into the narrow Mersey River
The narrow Mersey River, services the busy port of Devonport, for both industry and tourism.
The "Spirit of Tasmania" brings hundreds of people from the mainland several times a week. The two leading lights were attended at sunset and daybreak by the Mersey Bluff lightkeepers. The rear light which was similar to the front, but about twice the height, has been removed and replaced by triangular structure. The lights were designed by Huckson and Hutchison of Hobart. |
