This was taken on the opposite side of the harbour from York Redoubt a old fortification.

Maugher Beach Lighthouse stands at the end of a curving beach on McNabs Island, at the entrance to Halifax harbour. The beach was named after Joshua Maugher, a rum distiller and merchant who used the beach to dry fish. It is also known as "Hangman’s Beach" because the Royal Navy used it to hang the bodies of executed mutineers as a warning to crews of other ships entering the harbour.

The first light was lit here in 1828, from a granite Martello Tower with a red roof. The present lighthouse was built in 1941.

Tower Height: 16.46m (54ft)
Light Height: 17.37m (57ft) above water level

The Algonova passing by the lighthouse was built in Turkey in 2008. Its function is to provide safe and reliable transportation services for liquid petroleum products throughout the Great Lakes, St. Lawrence Seaway and Atlantic Canada regions. Customers include major oil refiners, leading wholesale distributors and large consumers of petroleum products who demand the highest levels of quality and service. It is registered in St. Catharines, Canada.

In 1871, Pugwash Lighthouse was established on Fishing Point at the entrance to Pugwash Harbor and the Pugwash River. The lighthouse, which was built in a “schoolhouse” design with a square tower rising from one end of the dwelling’s roof. This style of lighthouse is uncommon in Canada, but was frequently used in the United States.

The narrow point of land on which the lighthouse stood was often subjected to erosion and flooding. A stone retaining wall was built along the bank in 1878, and many things had to be done every few years to protect the point from erosion.

The gallery deck on top of the tower was rebuilt in 1880 so that a larger lantern could be used with a more powerful optic. Around 1960, a new tower was built on the point, and the old Pugwash Lighthouse was sold to the Mundle family, who moved the structure to their nearby farm.

The Arisaig Lighthouse is a replica of the original Arisaig Point Lighthouse, which burned in the early 1930s. In 2007 community volunteers built a replica of the Lighthouse using the original plans as a guide. I like the lobster weathervane on top.

Arisaig Light – In 1895 a lamp attached to a high pole was erected to navigate boats to and from the Arisaig Wharf; in 1898 a lighthouse was built. A white square wooden tower with four sloping sides, 32 feet high, showing a fixed red light, 40 feet above sea level; visible for seven miles. There were only three keepers of this light. In the late 1930′s while lighting the lamp, the lamp caught fire destroying the lighthouse. The government did not replace the building. Arisaig,Nova Scotia, Canada
