London Lighthouse

The Lighthouse, in Trinity Buoy Wharf, built in 1864. Never used to aid navigation but to experiment and develop lighting equipment for the Trinity House network of lighthouses, lightships and buoys. It was the place where the scientist Michael Faraday conducted his optical experiments, and was also a vital resource for the training of lighthouse personnel.
