Summary

The Heugh Lighthouse, Hartlepool Headland. There have been three lighthouses on the cliff top at Hartlepool. The first stood from 1846 - 1915 and was probably the first successful gas-lit lighthouse in the world. It was taken down during the First World War because it stood in the way of the guns at Heugh Battery. It was replaced by a temporary light on the nearby Town Moor, which was used until 1927 when the current lighthouse <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Heugh_(Hartlepool_Headland)_lighthouse_%5E2_-_geograph.org.uk_-_655363.jpg" title="File:The Heugh (Hartlepool Headland) lighthouse ^2 - geograph.org.uk - 655363.jpg">655363</a> was built <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="http://portcities.hartlepool.gov.uk/server.php?show=ConNarrative.6&chapterId=43">http://portcities.hartlepool.gov.uk/server.php?show=ConNarrative.6&chapterId=43</a> The cannon can be seen on the right <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cannon,_Heugh_Headland,_Hartlepool_-_geograph.org.uk_-_1607919.jpg" title="File:Cannon, Heugh Headland, Hartlepool - geograph.org.uk - 1607919.jpg">1607919</a>
