Description

Lighthouse i Lowestoft ligger nord for centrum af Lowestoft, en by beliggende i det engelske grevskab Suffolk. Fyrtårnet fungerer som navigationspunkt for skibsfart på den del af Nordsøen langs den engelske østkyst. Det ligger nær Ness Point, det østligste punkt i Det Forenede Kongerige, og er dermed det østligste fyrtårn i landet.
Bygningen består af et rundt hvidt stentårn med en højde på 16 meter. Rundt om lysbygningen er der en balkon. Tårnet genererer et hvidt lysblink hvert 15. sekund. Til dette anvendes en katadioptrisk linse af 4. orden med en brændvidde på 250 mm. Dette lys befinder sig 37 meter over gennemsnitligt havniveau. Lysstrålen har en intensitet på 380.000 candela og er synlig op til en afstand af 23 sømil. Et to-delt boliger til fyrvagter blev bygget til tårnet. Installation styres fra Planlægningscentret i Trinity House i Harwich i Essex. Denne virksomhed forvalter navigationssystemer i England, Wales og Gibraltar.
