North Bank Lighthouse, Maritime beacon at River Liffey mouth, Ireland
The North Bank Lighthouse stands 11 meters tall with a square tower structure supported by concrete columns at the entrance of Dublin Port.
The lighthouse started operations in 1882 as part of a network of four beacons guiding ships into the River Liffey and Dublin Port.
In 2015, the lighthouse inspired artist Fergal McCarthy to create a full-scale replica with functioning green light for an exhibition at Trinity College.
The lighthouse projects a green light visible for 16 nautical miles, operating in seven-second intervals followed by one-second eclipses.
The structure sits midway between the North Bull Wall and Alexandra Quay, functioning alongside three other lighthouses to guide maritime traffic.
