high light: F W (not in use) low light: F R (not in use)
The Seaton Carew lighthouses were a pair of leading light towers built in Seaton Carew to guide ships into the River Tees. The low light was demolished over a century ago and what remained of the high light has been rebuilt in Hartlepool Marina.[1]
Under increasing commercial pressure from the docks at West Hartlepool the Tees Navigation Company decided to improve access to the River Tees by providing a pair of leading lighthouses (navigation light towers) on the coast at Seaton Carew.
These were not the first lighthouses in Seaton Carew as there is evidence of an earlier lighthouse in the 15th century.[2]
