Dixon Hill Lighthouse
This lighthouse was built in 1856 and stands on the northeastern part of the island. It is one of only a few lighthouses in the world that are kerosene fueled. It sends out a 400,000 candle power light twice a minute that can be seen up to 19 miles away.
This next photo shows the lantern of the light house. You can see the mantle of the lantern and how thick the glass is.
