The isle of Lundy has three lighthouses: a pair of active lights built in 1897 and a preserved older lighthouse dating from 1819.
The old lighthouse (together with the adjacent keepers' accommodation) is a Grade II* listed building[1] and the tower is a scheduled monument.[2] An associated fog signal battery is also a scheduled monument[3] containing several Grade II listed structures. The North and South lighthouses are also Grade II listed buildings.[4][5]
The Old Light and its associated keepers' house are today kept open by the Landmark Trust.[6] The North and South lighthouses are run and maintained by Trinity House, the general lighthouse authority for England and Wales; nowadays they are fully automated, and monitored via a telemetry link from Harwich.[7]
