Description

The Round House, East Bungalow and West Bungalow are lighthousemen's dwellings. The Round House was formed from the remains of a lighthouse erected in 1792. When a new lighthouse was constructed in 1904 (confusingly now known as the Old Lighthouse), the older lighthouse was demolished, with the exception of the lower two storeys which were retained as accommodation.
