Light house

Today my reading group has been reading about Light houses.

I have learnt that Light houses are now massively technical and Very automated. there were over 1,500 wrecks in 19th-century New Zealand and over 2,000 death. In the 1850s coastal lights were haphazardly places insufficient. In 1862 the nelson provincial council announced that from 4 august and every night thereafter a beam would shine from dday till night from a light house an the boulder bank.
