Woodman Point Lighthouse, Maritime navigation structure in Henderson, Australia
The limestone lighthouse reaches 13 meters high with a focal height of 37 meters above sea level, featuring red and white exterior markings.
Construction of the Gage Roads Lighthouse started in October 1901 with a contract given to W.C. Rose for £2,383, opening in August 1902.
The lighthouse compound includes two Federation Bungalow style keepers' cottages built from local limestone, now serving as private residences.
The structure operates with an automated system providing light signals visible up to 22 nautical miles, guiding vessels toward Fremantle Harbor.
During World War II, the lighthouse functioned as a military communications base and observation post under constant armed surveillance.
